February 7, 1944. The day of the opening of an important exhibition of his work, the photographer Oskar Benedek disappears without trace. His strange story can seem dubious, rather like his disturbing images, appearing to constantly deceive with what they show us and tell us. The Shadow's Share examines this duplicity, focusing both on the historical context of 1940s Hungary and the very nature of this body of work obsessed by the theme of masks.
