Second Run will release György Fehér’s legendary, long unseen masterpiece, TWILIGHT (Szürkület), on World Premiere Blu-ray on 12 June 2023, presented from a new 4K restoration by the National Film Institute Hungary – Film Archive, supervised and approved by cinematographer Miklós Gurbán.
A seasoned detective investigates a series of child murders, succumbing to an all- consuming and tragic obsession with the case, finding empty solace in his quest for vengeance. What emerges is not a crime story, but a harrowing venture through the darkness of the human soul.
Based on the writings of Swiss author Friedrich Dürrenmatt, TWILIGHT unfolds with breathtaking cinematography and haunting sound design, allowing the mystery to emerge in tantalisingly atmospheric and meditative fashion.

• A series of exclusive newly filmed appreciations by filmmakers: Quay Brothers, Peter Strickland, James Norton, and Critic Chris Fujiwara.
• Newly filmed interviews with Twilight editor Mária Czeilk and cinematographer Miklós Gurbán.
• Booklet featuring an expansive new essay by filmmaker and curator Stanley Schtinter.
• World premiere on Blu-ray.
• Region Free Blu-ray (A/B/C).
