Flies buzz, spiders weave, water drips, and animals root desultorily in the barnyard of a collective farm. But when the charismatic Irimias, long-thought dead, returns, the villagers fall under his spell. Irimias sets about swindling the villagers out of a fortune that might allow them to escape the emptiness and futility of their existence. He soon attains a messianic aura as he plays on the fears of the townsfolk and a series of increasingly brutal events unfold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the fading embers of a Communist utopia, life in a desolate Hungarian town has come to a virtual standstill.
