The Past-Master farmer

The Bash Master runs a pig farm staffed by four keepers: the former buyer Raffaello, hiding from the authorities; the alcoholic poet Ivan; the beautiful gypsy Tsetsa and her husband. Through bribes, scams, and blackmail, the Bash Master secures a permit for the pig farm, which is located beside a kindergarten in a newly erected complex. He drives pigs around in a Mercedes, intrudes on book purchases he will never read, pours money into superfluous furniture, and smokes only Kent cigarettes, and that is just the beginning.
