It is based on a play by which premiered in Budapest in 1968, and which itself reinterpreted the Greek myth of Electra.

Red Psalm
''Red Psalm'' ( hu, Még kér a nép) is a 1972 Hungarian film by Miklós Jancsó. The literal translation of the title is "''And the People Still Ask''", a quote from a poem by Sándor Petőfi. Plot ''Red Psalm'' centers around a small peasants' revolt in 1890. It draws inspiration from the Hungarian revolutionary movements of the 19th century, including the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, of which Sándor Petőfi, the poet whose work the film's Hungarian title references, was a participant. Background Like most of Jancsó's best-known works, ''Red Psalm'' is loosely based on events from Hungarian history. Shot in very long, carefully choreographed takes, the film features only 26 shots. Unlike Jancsó's previous films, which used music only sparsely, almost every scene in ''Red Psalm'' features music, usually performed by the on-screen characters. The songs include Hungarian folk music and songs in Russian and English, most famously "Charlie Is My Darling" (a variation on a Scots s ...
