A Porcelánbaba plot

The film consists of 3 stories. 1) A group of cavalry soldiers challenges a farmer's son to a shooting, high jump and running competition. When the boy surpasses them in all disciplines and is clearly winning the last match, the commander shoots him dead. Fortunately, his grandmother's mystical powers can help. 2) When an official encounters two grieving mothers, he claims he can resurrect their dead children. While exhuming the bodies, a curse strikes the village. 3) An elderly couple flees from the soldiers who want to deport them. They seek refuge with the farmers, but are betrayed by an enemy. Just before their arrest, they purposely walk into a field, lie down and disappear into the corn.
