1894. The mortal remains of Kossuth Lajos are brought home from abroad, the railways are lined with people with their hats in hand, and among them stands the teenager Tányér Imre. 1910. The grown-up Imre undertakes the task to solve the question unsolved since 1848-49, i.e. the transformation of peasant life. He fights for the rights of his class, for justice, for human dignity in a society distorted, backward and built on inequality. His heroic battle eats away his health, life and wealth, proving that the individual is unable to find the way out of the dead-end streets of history. He lives already abandoned and insane, when a socialist peasant organisation is established in his village by some people from the city. (official distributor synopsis)
