Screenplay Written by, Painted and Directed by György Kovásznai Music Compilation and Sound Editor: Péter Bársony Music Performed by Gábor Presser, Levente Szörényi, Zsuzsa Koncz, Kati Kovács, Máté Viktor, the LGT and the Hungária Bands Collaborators: János Czipauer, András Osvát, Miklós Papp, Béla Zsebényi, Katalin Kaim, Klára Kassai, and Frigyes Janotyik A subjective interpretation of the everyday life of the 1970s’ Budapest . It is an intriguing mixture of popular culture (music) and high art (composition of images). Kovásznai is not interested in telling a story; there is no linear narrative, the structure of the film is defined by the movements and transformations of the paintings to the rhythm of the music, generating a fundamentally audiovisual sensory experience.
