After her husband’s death, Hanna Szendrőy, the former prima donna, is caught in the claws of the real estate mafia. She looses her lavish home and ends up homeless at the Keleti train station. When she returns to her house, now full of homeless people moved in by the real estate mafia, an unexpected relationship brings hope into her life again.
Our tragicomedy tells its story through the fate of the protagonist portrayed by Maja Komorowska; sometimes it is through the darkest hardships that the possibility of a cleaner and more truthful life arises, and, that the miracle of love is ageless.
