This film-poem draws a true picture of Hungary’s Pannonian Steppe, or puszta, and the people living there. The story focuses on the Czinege family. Austrian director Georg Höllering worked for more than two years under difficult conditions in the puszta on this docu-fiction, with peasants and herdsmen playing themselves.
