The Son of the White Mare

Israeli premiere! Cult classic by Oscar-winning Hungarian director Marcell Jankovics, based on a Hungarian fairy tale: The Dragons defeated the gods and abducted the Princesses of Autumn, Winter, and Summer to the Underworld. The White Mare who hid in the roots of the World Tree gave birth to her third son and nursed him with the milk of the stars. When the boy was strong enough to shake the roots of the World Tree, he set out to save the Princesses from the Underworld and restore the lost kingdom. This beautiful epic from 1981 was digitally restored (K4) only two years ago to be screened now in all its glory.
