Inhabitants of a small village in Hungary Cope with the effects of Communism's Collapse. Town's supply of revenue, a factory outlet, has shut, and the locals, who include three spouses and a physician, anticipate a cash payment. Irimias, a villager thought to be dead, is actually a police informant and, unbeknownst to the locals, returns. In a strategy, he persuades the villagers to make a commune with him.
