This easy-to-take Hungarian drama is also known as Two Wishes. The prinicipal characters are a pair of juvenile delinquents, who may still be redeemable. The sullen duo is befriended by a kindly police inspector, who takes it upon himself to straighten out the boys. What follows cannot be termed surprsingly or innovative, though it is immensely satisfying. Of interest is the fact that a Communist-bloc film would admit to a delinquency problem in the so-called Worker's Paradise. Ket Vallomas was the Hungarian entry in the 1957 Cannes Film Festival.

Hotel Sunrise is a busy place. Male guests are, almost without an exception, in love with Mária, the directress of the hotel.

Az Aranyember (The Man of Gold) was based on a novel by Jokai, at one time Hungary's foremost storyteller. Set in the early 19th century, the story revolves around Timar (Ferenc Kiss), a ferryman on a Danish tugboat.

Now rich beyond his wildest dreams, our hero finds he is unsatisfied; it seems he has never forgotten his true love, flower girl Noemi (Anna Fuzes). Timar is forced to suffer mightily until he is finally permitted a tender reunion with the girl of his dreams.

Little Sutyi lives in the suburb, trying to make some money doing minor jobs.

Once upon a time, young people did not marry like today, only for love. Because if the love was there and they couldn't create their existence for it, then they must have faithfully waited until they had something to support themselves and the family. Gábor Kórody, an engineer without a job, and Magda Szabó, a poor country girl, have been engaged for years when their seemingly unbelievable dream finally comes true. Gábor gets a job through Magda's acquaintance. They set off happily, but an unfortunate incident disrupts their happiness, and may even make it impossible forever. Arriving in Budapest at the train station, Gábor somehow ends up in a brawl with a gentleman who happens to be the same "car king" from whom he got the job - such is one's luck. But Gábor has his own wits. He sends his friend, Máytá Tavaszi, who happens to be a pharmacist, to replace him at his new job.
