The adventures of a young man as he moves from the Latin-American revolutions in the sixties and seventies, through Hungary in the eighties, to the Croatian war in 1991.

Kati, a fragile, sixteen-year-old teenager and Sándor, a twenty-two-year-old young man get married defying their parents' and friends' objections. They spend their wedding night in a bunk-house, and then, trusting the strength of their love, they move in a boathouse on the Roman beach of the Danube.
