Narration spoken by John Glen.
This simple yet charming film was shot on the beaches of Rimini, Italy, by a Hungarian painter, an unwilling exile from his own country. In the elaborate sand castles built by the children he remembers the magnificent castles of his homeland and the heritage of their history. And in the violence of the children's game he sees the parallel with the recent tragic events in the country of his birth.
