Böske Simon was reflecting upon what happened to her during the year of 1929. An ordinary girl from Keszthely, her whole life was changed tremendously. 47 years after the blood libel trial of Tiszaeszlár, a young innocent Jewish girl made a sacrifice with her beauty for the cause of a Hungary suffering the ravages of the Trianon peace treaty. The most beautiful woman in Europe was now the embodiment of the Hungarian revisionist propaganda. "Thank you for letting me become Miss Hungary and letting me return the small national ribbon so triumphantly in this admittedly small matter..." The second world war is approaching and the hatred against Jews is increasing in Hungary. What will be the fate of Böske Simon in this cruel world?
