The Now or Never! Hungarian historical adventure film. The story begins on March 15, 1848. While the poet Sándor Petőfi and his friends race against time to force the end of Austrian rule, the Habsburgs' cruel secret policeman, Hungarian-born Farkasch, tracks them down to prevent the system from collapsing by putting Petőfi out of action.
The agent, who at first ignores the students' rebellion, realizes that the National Song can ignite the flame of the revolution as a spark, so he tries to destroy the Landerer printing house with paid robbers, but in vain. The young people manage to print the 12 points and the National Anthem, and their followers are invited to a rally in front of the National Museum.
Fighting for the survival of the system, Farkasch and his hounds try to kidnap Júlia, Petőfi's wife, but the poet manages to prevent the despicable act at the last moment.
Meanwhile, ten thousand of his followers are already reciting his masterpiece, the National Song, which has since become the anthem of Hungarian freedom, and enthusiastically follow the ardent poet to Buda, the Governor's Council.
Farkasch then sees the only way to stop the revolution is to kill the poet he is trying to shoot. The last test of the revolutionaries was the Austrian infantry lined up in front of the prison of Mihály Táncsics, who determined to turn their cannons against them...
