English synopsis:
A little portrait of a simple peasant who, to leave a mark, carves and erects headstones, carving double crosses all over Transylvania. The saw screams in his workshop, the shavings fly, the decoration is formed, the names of the counties are written on the corpus, the 64 finished headboard is dipped in hot paraffin, and he travels to Transylvania, the old Hungarian border in Gyimesbükk, the majestic buildings of the former advertise as a memento, 64 counties once formed Hungary.
