A Plane Has Not Returned (Hungarian: Egy gép nem tért vissza) is a 1944 Hungarian war drama film directed by Ágoston Pacséry and starring Margit Lukács, Pál Jávor and Károly Kovács.[1] [2] It was shot at the Hunnia Studios in Budapest. It is one of comparatively few contemporary Hungarian films directly portraying Hungary's involvement in World War II.
Lieutenant Gábor, Hungarian Air Force pilot drops intelligence officer Benkov behind enemy lines where he makes contact with his lover Marja who has infiltrated the partisans. All proceeds well, but on the new mission the play is shot at and forced to make a landing. Marja shelters them, and all three are willing to sacrifice their lives in order to get the vital information they had uncovered back to their own side.
