This academic, albeit beautifully shot, exercise will appeal mainly to those who like their Greek tragedy served with no frills or explanations and a bare minimum of dialogue.

A man comes home to meet his mother and sister after many years away. He finds his mother living with a new boyfriend, and his sister to be grown-up. He begins to settle down in this new place by building a new home for himself on the delta. But when his sister moves in with him and the two begin a romance, there are tragic consequences.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

What are critics saying?
Taking a page--or rather, several chapters--from the Eastern European art-house playbook, Hungarian filmmaker Kornél Mundruczó works this stock tale into a deliberately paced parable of desire and dread.
A powerful meditation on personal freedom from a Hungarian auteur.
A beautifully atmospheric vessel that will seem infinitely deep to some and chafingly dry to others.
The New York Times by Jeannette Catsoulis
Unfolding like a medieval horror movie, Delta is sometimes laughable but often admirable.
