Overview

Huttyán stands with a bottle of beer in his hand in front of the pub in Öcsöd. The police approach him and report him for "illegal drinking in a public area". Huttyán does not have a thousand forints to pay the penalty, he prefers to go to prison for twenty forints a day. He gets sick in prison, despite seeking medical help; He dies at the age of 57. This is how a career that never began ended. One of Huttyán's sons, Géza, watches TV all day from a wheelchair. He doesn't do anything else, it's his only connection to the world. In the spring of 1996, he sees the Grammy awards being presented in Los Angeles, and among them Deep Forest in the World Music category..
