Through the intimate, honest interviews we get a glimpse of the part of their lives which usually remains hidden – as if peeping through the keyhole.

Directed, written, and co-produced by Zoltan Kamondi), Kisertesek ("Temptations") illustrates the struggle between ancient traditions and the modern world of restless young Marci (Marcell Miklos), a fatherless young man who is considered somewhat of an outcast within the community.
