Towards the Salt Cellar
1978, Hungarian. Directed by István Orosz.
The Hungarian family make their best to entertain the German exchange-student with traditional Hungarian dishes. The rather insignificant head of the family tries to reach for the salt cellar but can't do it, while his family keeps on chatting and eating without noticing that someone has gone missing from the table.
