Plot Outline

Inhabitants of a small village in Hungary deal with the effects of the fall of Communism. The town's source of revenue, a factory, has closed, and the locals, who include a doctor and three couples, await a cash payment offered in the wake of the shuttering. Irimias, a villager thought to be dead, returns and, unbeknownst to the locals, is a police informant. In a scheme, he persuades the villagers to form a commune with him.

Attention: The film is 7h19min long! But don't worry: the screening room is fully air-conditioned, there will be two short breaks, and we'll be serving organic vegan goulash by @foodjockeyalexandertrinkl to keep you going! ;)
