This film is a tribute to a humiliated and destroyed nation. "As Long as the Grass Grows" is an alternative, ancient and humble creation story, where man is not the crown of the creation, but the weakest of all creatures. The film takes us back to the beginning of time, where Old Man begins to create the world out of a handful of mud. Everything he creates is new and nameless, and affects the rest of the world. Even feelings and desires are unknown and when they emerge, the world becomes more and more complicated.
Bálint, the theatre's award-winning chief director, thinks that he will be the successor of the resigning manager. However, the owner of the theater, Szalai, is asking Imre Hamar, an older man from a completely different field with no theatrical experience, to be the manager. Bálint is about to prepare a large-scale Romeo and Juliet performance with his actors, when Imre interrupts the rehearsal to introduce himself and outline the new situation… New leader, completely different leadership principles. Can a private theater on the brink of bankruptcy be saved?
