Another Way (Hungarian: Egymásra nézve) is a 1982 Hungarian historical drama film directed by Károly Makk. The screenplay co-written by Makk and Erzsébet Galgóczi is based on Galgóczi's semi-autobiographical 1980 novella Törvényen belül (Another Love). The film stars Jadwiga Jankowska-Cieślak and Grażyna Szapołowska. Set in 1958, the story is about an affair between two women.
The film competed for the Palme d'Or at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival, and Jankowska-Cieślak received the Best Actress award. Another Way is the first Hungarian feature film to show a positive portrayal of homosexual love.
It was a notable cult film for lesbian audiences in Cold War Hungary and Poland.
