The Upthrown Stone (1969)
An aspiring film student is denied a scholarship to the state-funded university when his father is thrown in jail. The man had stopped a train in order to facilitate the union between two old friends. The son then takes a job as a land surveyor and meets a Greek man who works towards the collective benefits of the peasants. The man is killed in a peasant uprising prompted by a bureaucratic boondoggle. The surveyor looks after the man's widow as his emerging political and social awareness leads him take a stand against government injustice. Another incident, in which gypsies are rounded up by state hygiene workers, further galvanizes the man's beliefs. He photographs the incident, and his work allows him to be accepted into the school from which he was previously denied admission.

Vigilantes (1993)
A group of seven friends of different ages and interests meet regularly at Eva's. They have coffee, talk and listen to music. At one of the gatherings, Eva finds a secret agent's badge, "Lookout 123", in the hallway. The accidentally dropped ID card can only belong to one of the members of the party. From that moment on, the film is a continuous chain of private investigations, suspicions, betrayals, deceptions, the fabrication of hypotheses, the chess game of thinking through all the motives that are supposed to be relevant.

The film tells the story of a regiment of Hungarian hussars stationed in Poland. The hussars, mostly ordinary men, have heard news of the uprising and wish to return to the homeland to defend the newly independent country.
