Trumpet player Géza Elekes does not play very well in his private life, and his fourth marriage has failed. One day he gets a call from his father, whom he hasn't spoken to in decades. This prompts her and her son, András, who is in the thick of things, to visit her parents, who live across the border. When he arrives in Transylvania, his father says he is fed up with her jealousy and moves in with him. Géza reluctantly accepts the idea, but eventually the three men set off for Budapest. Along the way, they face many trials and tribulations: hit-and-runs, chases, women, corpses and the green border.

Lörinc apja öngyilkos lett, de annyi biztos, hogy halálát felesége és annak szeretöje, Wavra tanár is elöidézte. Egy dubrovniki út végleg kiábrándítja Lörincet családi illú- zióiból. Csepelen munkássztrájk van, Lörinc együttérzéssel figyeli a munkásokat, de azok bizalmatlansága nem oldódik. Bár egy szerelem Évivel, az illegális pártmunkással végleg elfordítja Lörincet osztályától, nem tud közelebb kerülni a munkásokhoz. Written by Steve Varadi <svaradi@sprynet.com>
