Shaman

The film is a lyrical series of associations compiled from documentaries. Márkus, the actor is shut in his own flat by his wife by accident. While learning his part, on the wings of poetic intuition his imagination tours the great landscapes of the soul, the mystery of human existence. In the "Shamanic" trance a three sided archetype of his being sets off in the personification of two men and a girl disguised as a clown. Affected by the evoked, much suffered peasant complexions the actor, who has even lost his ability to speak, would experience with the help of the poems of Weöres Sándor, Nagy László, József Attila all the pleasures and woes of the forever changing world, so that he regained the capacity to call out names.
