“Sunset” (“Napszallta”)the new film from Oscar-winning Hungarian director Laszlo Nemes, will have its debut in competition at the Venice Film Festival which runs Aug. 29-Sept. 8.

“Sunset” takes place in Hungary’s capital just before World War I. The film tells the story of Irisz Leiter, a young woman orphaned at an early age. She returns to Budapest seeking work in a hat store her parents used to own and discovers she has an older brother.

Hungary’s National Film Fund said in a statement that “Sunset” also will be shown at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.

Nemes’ first feature film, “Son of Saul,” set in the Nazi’s Auschwitz death camp, won the 2016 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, as well as the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival in 2015.

The Venice fest’s opening night film will be director Damien Chazelle’s “First Man,” telling the story of astronaut Neil Armstrong. It is screening in competition at the festival. Screening out of competition is director Bradley Cooper’s “A Star is Born.”

Other notable films in competition at Venice include the Coen brothers’ “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs,” Alfonso Cuaron’s “Roma,” Paul Greengrass’ “22 July,” Luca Guadagnino’s “Suspira,” and Mike Leigh’s “Peterloo.”

The festival also has an extensive lineup of VR projects.
