The Hungarian family make their best to entertain the German exchange-student with traditional Hungarian dishes. The rather insignificant head of the family tries to reach for the salt cellar but can't do it, while his family keeps on chatting and eating without noticing that someone has gone missing from the table.

A centaur family moves into an apartment in Budapest, where the residents, led by the house janitor, don't take kindly to the odd lifestyle of the new residents.

Collection of cartoon anecdotes summons the small-town world of the turn of the century, condensed into a single day, with ‘Czech’ good humour. The mosaic-like short evokes locations of the artist’s childhood, the Fin de Siècle milieu of Sopron through the glittering imagination of the graphic artist director, where the stationmaster salutes the rising sun, and the train driver associates himself with a mermaid in his bath, who he caught that day in the lake.

Amusing burlesque about a cannonball liberated. The pathway of our spherical friend is not restricted by temporal or spatial dimensions, and neither is the soaring imagination of director Líviusz Gyulai.
