Kati (Bella Muzsnay), the daughter of a landowner (László Bakó), is not very sad while her fiancé, Matyi (Sándor Szőke), is a prisoner of war in Russia: she meets the handsome goulash (Sándor Garamszeghy). He is not too happy when Matyi returns home from Siberia. The two men competing for her hand get into a fight and the goulash is sent to prison. The proposal goes through, but the goulash escapes from his cell. After a long chase, he is captured, but on the day of the wedding his sentence expires and he is released. The newlyweds spend their wedding night in the attic, and the jealous goulash burns down the house in revenge.
Directed by Sándor Garamszeghy, Matyólakodalom leans on a strong ensemble — László Bakó, Paula Bera, Sándor Garamszeghy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 1921.
