Synopsis by Mark Deming

In this black comedy that occasionally edges into horror territory, Jozsi (Lajos Kovacs) is a slightly touched and very single man who scrapes together a living through petty theft and scavenging valuable items from trash dumpsters. When Jozsi learns a new factory has opened in town, he decides to check them out, discovering their products include life-size, inflatable female dolls. Jozsi thinks one of the dolls bears a striking resemblance to a sales clerk at a local store for whom he's been carrying a torch, so he takes the doll home and soon has established a cozy domestic relationship with the doll. But Jozsi's happiness is short-lived, which is bad news for the flesh-and-blood woman of his dreams. Bizarr Romanc: Tanyasi Dekameron was shown in competition at 2001's Hungarian Millennial Film Week.
