The film observes the effect of the socialist era of the country’s history on the individual through the retelling of the director’s maternal grandmother’s life. This creative documentary, which is a 15-minute-long single take treating everyday existence in one of the so called “kommunalkas“ (shared apartments), shows the dramatic impact and the structure of Kádár’s Hungary. It serves as a memento of times past and as a reminder of how socialism colonized the souls of a generation.
