Szinopszis:
Since Aristotle, humanity has been preoccupied with the question of what could be the mysterious sign that trigger the flight of up to millions of mayflies at once in the evenings. Hungarian researchers are trying to solve the millennium mystery. Will they succeed? The stake is huge, as the survival of the Danube mayfly may depend on their discovery. By the time the sunlight disappears and the night has come, a mystery will be solved and the swarming of the mayflies will be over.
