ABOUT THE PRODUCTION
Director Géza M. Tóth was asked to make a film about the castle’s six painted rooms marvellously restored to make the visitors even more curious and eager to see the frescos. As the film is exclusively screened in the castle, before people could see the painted rooms, the director decided not to show the paintings directly in the film. Instead, he creates the desire of seeing them. The film was shot during the reconstructions of the building. Countess Ludmilla is played by the world famous opera singer, Andrea Rost.
