Un niño asiste al funeral de su padre en una Budapest arrasada tras los bombardeos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial recién finalizada. El fantasma del progenitor, convertido en figura heroica, sobrevuela constantemente la vida de Tako, convertido a su vez en héroe, por herencia paterna, a los ojos de los otros niños. En contra de lo que podría esperarse de este argumento, István Szabó huye deliberadamente de cualquier pretensión de solemnidad y se decanta por el terreno de la ironía y el absurdo en el relato vital del protagonista desde la niñez hasta los tiempos de joven universitario, con el trasfondo de la emergente figura de Stalin tras la guerra.
