English Summary:

Twister is a 1996 American disaster film directed by Jan de Bont from a screenplay by Michael Crichton and Anne-Marie Martin. Its executive producers were Steven Spielberg, Walter Parkes, Laurie MacDonald, and Gerald R. Molen. The film stars Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton, Jami Gertz, and Cary Elwes and depicts a group of storm chasers researching tornadoes during a severe outbreak in Oklahoma. 

In June 1969 Oklahoma, young Jo Thornton and her family are awakened by an approaching F5 tornado. The family seeks refuge in their storm cellar, but the tornado rips the cellar door off and pulls Jo's father to his death.

Twenty-seven years after the death of Jo's father, the National Severe Storms Laboratory predicts a record outbreak of tornadoes in Oklahoma over a 24-hour period. Now an adult, Jo, a meteorologist and storm chaser, is reunited with her estranged husband, Bill Harding, a former weather researcher and fellow storm chaser, who has since moved on to become a television weather reporter; he is planning to marry reproductive therapist Melissa Reeves. However, his plans are delayed, as Jo has not yet signed the long-overdue divorce papers. Visiting Jo's camp to get her to complete the forms, Bill finds that she and her team have built four tornado research devices called DOROTHY based on his design. Each unit contains hundreds of sensors that, if picked up by a tornado, will provide data that could lead to breakthroughs in meteorological research. Before Jo can finish the paperwork, her team rushes to intercept a nearby forming F1 tornado, forcing Bill and Melissa to chase after her. Bill encounters Dr. Jonas Miller, a corporate-funded meteorologist and long-time rival storm chaser, and learns that he has created a device called DOT-3, a blatant copy of DOROTHY. Bill vows to help Jo deploy DOROTHY before Jonas can deploy DOT-3 and claim credit for the idea.

Hungarian Summary:

Oklahomában az utóbbi idők legnagyobb vihara lóg a levegőben, melyben több forgószél fog lecsapni Tornado Alleyre. Erre az alkalomra vár a két rivális tudóscsoport, hogy nevüket beírják a meteorológia történetébe. Hiába a precíz műszerek, a tornádókat csak közvetlen közelről lehet vizsgálni, így életük kockáztatásával törekednek arra, hogy az emberek életét megmentsék. Ezalatt a természeti viharokhoz mérhető emberi viszályok kavarják fel a tudósok magánéletét is.
