Mathias, the king of the world

Mátyás Hunyadi is one of the most significant figures in Hungarian history, and his reign is surrounded by many stories, legends and anecdotes. The youth performance of the Hungarian National Dance Ensemble evokes his fabulous figure, and his court historian, the famous Galeotto Marzio, guides the audience through the instructive stories. The truth-telling shepherd, the evil judge, but also Queen Beatrix conveys the message that good is always rewarded and evil is punished.
