Description:
Gunshots are heard. The camera scans through a green field covered with haystack, then focuses on three figures, a group that portrays three generations. A child standing by the wayside hanged man, throws away the harmonica which the elderly man has given to him. The instrument twirls away in the air, its round-the-world trip begins. Postcards provide the background, it passes by major metropolises and exotic landscapes, then gun shots can be heard once again. At this point, only the hat remains lying on the field, with the harmonica resting on it. (Evelin Páll)
