Synopsis
In a small pub in Veszto, Hungary, former residents gather in 1979 to discuss a brief social experiment from 1944. After the Red Army occupied their village, locals formed a temporary government, redistributing goods among the poor. This event, known as the 'Republic of Veszto,' lasted only two months but became notable in Hungarian communist press. The film captures the clash of memories between the village's former leaders and its poorer citizens as they reflect on those turbulent times.
