混沌的魔法时代,没有秩序和权威,只有血腥的杀戮。星罗棋布的小国散落在大地上,人类正处于未开化的蛮荒时代。但是传说在四百年前曾经有一个辉煌的旧世界文明,他们掌握着不同于元素魔法的旧世界魔法,但却在四百年前被一个叫安拉沙斯克斯的破坏神毁灭了。破坏神在七天之内,完全消灭了当时的文明世界,但是却没能毁灭人类。一个被称为“龙战士路西法”的救世主降临,击败了破坏神。在安拉沙斯克斯的身上施加了四个封印,使其意志与身体分离。龙战士离去时曾留下预言,说有一天当破坏神苏醒时,流着路西法血的人将成为新的龙战士,再次封印邪神。四百年过去了,人们在废墟上建立起新的文明,破坏神的身体沉睡在拥有最强兵力的王国久达斯王城下,其余的三个封印分别存放在另外三家古老的王国中。后来,出现了一个邪恶的魔法师达克·修那依达(DS),他拥有极大的魔力和可怕的野心,掌握着各种古代语魔术,能够同时操...。In this bitingly satirical film Peter Slovan, a continuous source of trouble for the film functionaries of the socialist Slovakia, tackles an evergreen topic – the corruptive effects of power. Barnabáš Kos, a triangle player at a symphonic orchestra, is suddenly promoted to serve as the head of the said institution, even though both he and his superiors deem him completely unfit for the task. Encouraged in equal parts by this unexpected recognition and the servile praise of his colleagues, Kos’s modesty starts to gradually vanish. The erstwhile bashful and aloof percussionist quickly becomes aware of the advantages of his new office, and begins to realise his increasingly ludicrous artistic ambitions. Ultimately, the submissive marionette turns into a source of public humiliation, and his astonishing career finds an abrupt end. Orchestra serves here as a microcosm that grotesquely reflects the absurd and tragicomic mechanisms of the paranoid apparatus of power.
