A feature film based on the novella collection Csillagmajor (Star Farm) by Ervin Lázár. Once upon a time there was the Tanya. Somewhere in Hungary. More precisely: in Europe. Closer still: on a planet called Earth. Here, on this Tanya, lived loving, naive and refined farm people. Occasionally, strange people would come to this farm. And then all hell would break loose. Because with strangers came death. And destruction. And hatred. And envy. And vanity. And shame. And lies. On this farm, strangers have always been trouble.

In Ervin Lázár's story, which combines elements of fairy tale and reality, Peti moves the old lion, who goes by the name of Szigfrid Bruckner, into the abandoned barn. Peti later takes pity on the lonely lion and, with Viktor's help, sets out to free Szilvia, Szigfrid's partner, who is imprisoned in a circus. The operation is a success, but Peti's father decides to demolish the barn. Viktor and Gabriella do everything they can to stop the plan, but eventually Peti's father changes his mind and the inhabitants of the boy's imagination can live happily ever after in the abandoned barn.

An investigation into the sighting of a blue horse with roller skates in an apartment building turns into a burlesque nightmare.
