The movie is a spectacular, laugh-out-loud, movie-tale for adults about the difficulties of choosing a partner, loneliness, the battle between mysticism and reason, and the overwhelming power of love.
Liza, a 30-year-old nurse, goes in search of love, but her ill-fated admirers all die on their first date. Liza is convinced that she has become a fox-fairy,a deadly demon from Japanese folklore who rob men of their lives. A peculiar and poignant comedy set in a fictionalized 1970s Hungary with a capitalist system. Liza, The Fox-Fairy is a sarcastic fairy tale for grownups.
