They are fed and entertained by machines. They have had everything in life, they have no need for anything but pleasure, and so they have gradually degenerated. Humans appear on the alien planet, but they too are just having fun. Soon they too become orchids.

Allegory of the suppression of the 1919 revolution and the advent of fascism in Hungary; in the countryside, a unit of the revolutionary army spares the life of father Vargha, a fanatical priest. He comes back and leads massacres. A new force, represented by Feher, apparently avenges the people, but only to impose a different, more refined and effective kind of repression.
