In modern Hungary, con artist Bender Oszkár and his motley crew - Barangó and a band of small-time schemers - embark on a series of outrageous scams to track down an “illegal” millionaire and seize ten million for themselves. As they exploit every trick in the book - fake charities, crooked roulette tables, forged documents - their madcap pursuit of easy riches exposes the absurdities and corruptions of contemporary life, with Bender’s fate hanging on whether his “great maneuver” will pay off or blow up in his face.
Directed by Miklós Szinetár, Aranyborjú leans on a strong ensemble — Iván Darvas, László Bánhidi, Endre Harkányi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
