Aglaya 2012 (6.2)

This film is about the relationship of a mother and her daughter, the split-up of their family, the blessing and curse of belonging together and about coming of age - all this from the perspective of the young girl Aglaja. The story is based on real-life events, an Eastern European circus artist family that fled to the West. If they want to stay in the circus business they have to make up an exotic act. The mother spends all their money to buy a very dangerous act: hanging by her hair high up in the dome of the circus while juggling with burning torches. Every night Aglaja is terrified by the fear of losing her mother. But, on some day, she has to follow the family tradition and become the "Woman with the Hair of Steel".

In 1894, in Csuča, tragedy-stricken, from a blood-relative marriage, Boncza Berta is born.

She writes poetry and believes in her drawing talent - but she cannot be mediocre - this girl who lives in literature is destined to live forever. Chinska's personality, which neither reckons nor wants to reckon with reality, naturally leads to the bitter ordeal of her marriage to Ady. After Ady's death, she does not want to be the 'widow of the nation'.
