The Brutalist Ending Explained
Zsófia, László's niece, is one of the most significant characters in The Brutalist, despite having very few lines in the movie. In The Brutalist, Zsófia, László, and his wife Erzsébet all survived the Holocaust. But during the Holocaust, they were split apart. Actually, until he finally makes it to America at the start of the movie after a protracted journey, László is unaware that his wife and niece are still alive. László establishes himself in America during the first part of The Brutalist and eventually works on an architectural project for Harrison, a wealthy businessman.
