Synopsis
Set in the 1970s and 80s, in communist-era Hungary, the story focuses on Ottó Szamba, the center of cultural life in a small town on the banks of the Tisza river. He organizes festivals, water races, choirs, and acting performances. All the kids in town dream of becoming an actor, except for Ottó's son, who is ashamed of his father's brash behavior. He nevertheless applies to acting school, from which he graduates. Together with his friends Géza and Éva, he joins a rural acting troupe.
