***Not recommended for children under 12 years of age.***
A mother leaves the maternity home with her newborn baby in her arms, and the goalkeepers laugh cynically behind her. After a painful struggle, the mother puts her baby in a Limousine and then heads towards the river hopelessly. By the time she runs back for her child, tormented by remorse and emotional shock, the car has already been stolen by thieves. The orphaned boy exposed on the street ends up with a lonely, poor little man and they become inseparable companions.

Bem Cinema
In January 2016, the 108-year-old Bem Cinema will reopen its doors to the public, in a new way never seen before in Hungary: as a cinema of cult and classic films (no harm!), or as the educated French say (if you know your English): as a "repertory cinema".
