When his mother is killed in an attack on their Roma village, a traumatized boy is sent to live with his grandparents.

Csords and Illsi, the non-professional actors playing Ricsi and Virg, do a fine job, but the camera loves Illsi, and it's her story that stands out whether it was meant to or not.

Gives the audience the unfortunate feeling that the most compelling story is slowly receding into the distance as the films advances past its first 45 minutes.

It is a strong sensorial experience that on one hand deeply immerses the viewer in the atmosphere, but does not manage to fully keep its footing on the narrative level.

Although linked, each chapter works as its own short story, each with a unique structure and thematic throughline.
