Budapest Kiseret Dogs Of War Fish Dancing G-City MonologuesBudapest Kiseret
Synopsis:
Missed destinations and misguided intentions put a man on a train in the middle of the night. Stocked with an endless supply of bad wine, staffed by a conductor who has seen too many lonely nights, and a mysterious gypsy border guard. He is left with two choices, drink dance, and watch a world gone mad pass by in the shadows of a night without end, or fight to make it to a city he never intended to see.
