Wasn’t the Hungarian from Lake Balaton aiming high? What now? Continue to be on his successful wife’s back?

But when a right-wing populist stands as the only candidate for mayor in the village of 120 souls, László comes to his senses. In order to “prevent the right-wing idiot”, he puts himself forward as a liberal counter-candidate. The only question that remains is whether László’s marriage and he himself will survive the village election campaign?
