Just the Wind (Hungarian: Csak a szél) is a 2012 Hungarian drama film directed by Benedek Fliegauf. The film won the Jury Grand Prix at the 62nd Berlin International Film Festival.[1][2] The film was selected as the Hungarian entry for the Best Foreign Language Oscar at the 85th Academy Awards, but it did not make the final shortlist.[3]

It is based on an actual series of killings in Hungary. The plot however is fictional and focuses on a Roma family living close by. The film stars an amateur cast of Roma actors.[4]
