From the liner notes

In this highly experimental interpretation of life in post-communist Hungary, a writer lives a meager existence with his cat as he struggles to complete a novel. Kitty has a peculiar relationship with his master’s “talents,” because the film’s point of view is that of the cat. The world is understood through the eyes and brain of the pet cat, which is illustrated via clips from old Soviet propaganda films, point-of-view “cat cam” footage, and crude visual effects. Every night the writer makes a summary of his cat’s experiences during the past day, and that material is the basis for the novel. Directed by innovative Hungarian filmmaker Andras Szirtes, After the Revolution is a true experimental film— vibrant, unrefined and intentionally crude— produced in the aftermath of the end of communism.
