The film tracks the story of an atypical Hungarian family in the 20th century, made up of four generations of “unique” characters led by the Mum who is 94 years old and has relocated 27 times. Relocating became her main defence against troubles, dangers and conflicts. In fact, it was History that pursued her around the country and chastised her with the events of a  century in turmoil. At the age of 94, Mum recounts these events to her daughter, nearly 100 years of often mischievous and heart-warming anecdotes, but dotted with some tough times too.
