This romantic and grandiose historical film depicts the era of the constant incursions and heroic battles fought by the defenders of the castle of Eger, led by captain István Dobó, against the heavy odds of superior numbers through the lives and love of Bornemissza Gergely and Cecey Éva. Gergely is inaugurated as a fighter already at the age of 7, when he escapes the captivity of the half-eyed Turk, Jumurdzsak, with Vica and the war-booty. In thirty years' time he becomes the first assistant of captain Dobó and the brain of the castle in the defence of Eger. His fire-throwing inventions contribute greatly to the victory achieved at the cost of the lives of thousands. In addition to the fight of men and of weapons, Gergely's wife, Cecey Éva must likewise fight her war against the Turks, when she attempts to get back her stolen child from Jumurdzsak.

After the first part, I thought that the Hungarians didn't really achieve much and that they just made a somewhat naive historical film, where they wanted to show something from their past. However, when it came to the battle scenes in the end, I had to admit that they put a lot of effort into it and that they managed to handle the historical film in an above-average way.
