Petra
When a National Geographic photographer, Jeff Kovacs is assigned to photograph refugees in Budapest, he discovers that life in post-communist Hungary has nothing to do with Stalin. And when young art professor, Petra Farkas, takes Jeff to her countryside home, they find they have one thing in common: they both adore the idea of living off the grid.
