Directed by Géza von Radványi (Hungary, 1948) 100 min.

A band of runaways and orphans of the war scour the countryside in search of food and shelter. They invade and are then taken in by a musician and former concert pianist who is hiding out in a ruined castle. After the initial altercation between them the gang accepts his guidance and he wins their respect by protecting them from the elements. However, disgruntled townsfolk want to chase away the gang who has been - in their search for survival - laying waste to their crops. A battle ensues ending in the death of a little boy - and resolution.
