Passing Fancy

Directed by Gyula Maár

With Jiří Menzel, Cecília Esztergályos, Jiří Adamíra, Hana Maciuchová and Miklós Tolnai

The main character of the story which takes place in the twenties in Budapest is the poet Dr. Rácz György, who returns after ten years of absence. In a café he meets his former friend Lajos, who has just broken up with his lover, Márta, because of the wife of professor Büchler. The transiently formed, rootless Rácz gets entangled into the sophisticated, complicated love affairs of bored or tired ladies.
