English synopsis:
Huge volcanos, with burning ash clouds tumbling down the side, bubbling lava lakes and fireworks of sprinkling lava lighting up the night sky… Instead of travelling from Hungary to faraway places to see these spectacles, let’s use our imagination to travel back in time about 15 million years. Immediately, we are standing on a paradise island in the shallow subtropical sea, with a 1000-meter tall volcano towering above the lush green vegetation: the Börzsöny, at its prime.
