"Wild Hungary - A Water Wonderland" is a wildlife documentary about a white-tailed eagle family, a young otter and a giant catfish that share the wetlands of this country in Central Europe. Hungary lies in the bottom of the huge Pannonian Basin encircled by the peaks of the Alps and the Carpathians. Countless rivers and streams run from the mountains into the heart of the basin like the Danube or the Tisza and the countryside is densely scattered with thousands of lakes as well. In such a water paradise it's not surprising that wildlife is flourishing, often quite close to human settlements or well-known tourist destinations like the Lake Balaton or the Hungarian Puszta. "Wild Hungary" is also the story of a fisherman and a herdsman for whom the rhythm of the river and the moving of the water makes the yearly calendar. "Wild Hungary" offers a view behind the clichés that lives about this country. And there are much more to taste than the famous goulash soup.
