- Black and white Hungarian-German-French-Italian drama, 140 min

A travelling circus unexpectedly arrives in a boring, quiet small town in the Hungarian
Plain. Two of its attractions attract the public’s attention: the prince with the giant
whale. Strangers also come to the town, whom the prince enrages and incites to
destruction, along with the locals. a short time, all hell breaks loose, which common
sense is unable to stop. The work paints a dark picture of our human present and
future, in which there is no longer any place for idealism, and where the sharp line
between killers and victims is often blurred.
