About Professor Vidor Minorka's Great Day
One day, Dorka, one of the main characters in the fairy tale, goes to the market with her aunt. They buy a big chicken for the soup. The aunt sees a long-coveted white feather duster, but the vendor refuses to sell it, so the feisty aunt snatches it out of his hand and shoves it away. The spell that has kept the market peaceful is broken, and the ancient war between kofas, butchers and fishermen rages once more. Neither Minorka Vidor, a doctor of philosophy disguised as a hen, nor Emilia, a neurotic fairy godmother, can restore order until Auntie waves her feather broom again.
Directed by András Sólyom, Professor Vidor Minorka's Great Day leans on a strong ensemble — Borbála Boldoghy, Ági Margitai, Nóra Tábori — 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 screen titles of 1987.
