Transcription
Plot
The story takes place in a rural area of Hungary. There are two young people who fall in love with each other. However, the girl's father wants her to marry someone else.[5] But surprisingly this classic love story intertwines with traditional, political and economic choices.[6]
The scene where the two lovers are spinning at a dizzying view on the carousel has taken its place in the history of cinema. What makes the scene impressive is that the camera spun with them.[7]
