Kerekes (Antal Pager) acredita que é procurado pela polícia quando seus amigos fazem uma brincadeira com esse drama incomum de comédia. Ele retorna à sua cidade natal onde foi acusado de delatar um farmacêutico judeu e a esposa do farmacêutico aos nazistas. Com seus amigos seguindo-o, Kerekes tenta descobrir o que aconteceu com o casal depois que eles foram deportados. Depois de ser submetido a um julgamento simulado por seus amigos - e considerado culpado - Kerekes fica desesperado e tenta se matar.

This drama about a boorish non-conformist takes place in Hungary after the war and is dulled a little by political overtones but is still an engaging story. The setting is the countryside, where an independent, landowning farmer busies himself in his free time by bedding down the women on his farm and then tossing them aside. One such ill-treated lass ends up marrying a young man who is in charge of a communal farm, a farm the womanizing "beast" of the title is later forced to join. The arrogant, formerly independent farmer does not reform his ways and is soon chasing after the young manager's wife, the woman he dropped not that long ago. The results are disastrous.
