Réka Tenki

Réka Tenki, born in Debrecen back in ‘86, has been turning heads in Hungarian cinema for years. She’s got this way of slipping into a role that makes you forget you’re watching a movie at all—it’s almost freaky how real she feels on screen. In "Teströl és Lélekröl" (that’s "On Body and Soul" for the non-Hungarian crowd), she plays a character caught up in this bizarre, almost dreamlike story where two people connect in the most unexpected way—inside their own dreams. Not your everyday rom-com, trust me. But Réka doesn’t just stick to the artsy stuff. "Mellékhatás" (think "Side Effect") is a whole different ride. It’s this tense, twisty series where medical ethics go flying out the window and the stakes get wild. She totally nails the complexity—one minute you’re rooting for her, the next you’re like, “Wait, is she the villain now?” That’s talent. And then there’s "A pokol élövilága," which dives into the dark, weird corners of human nature. She brings this raw, almost unsettling intensity, making you squirm in your seat but unable to look away. She’s not afraid to get messy, ugly, or vulnerable—whatever the role demands. Honestly, Réka Tenki is one of those actors who makes you want to keep watching, no matter what she’s in. She’s got range, guts, and a knack for picking stories that actually mean something. Hungarian cinema’s lucky to have her.
