The insect world becomes a metaphor for the depravity and decadence of the upper class in this visually enticing period drama, set at the height of British colonialism. William, a penniless entomologist, falls in love with the eldest daughter of Sir Alabaster, an aristocrat who has offered the young man a position as his assistant. In spite of William's low social status and lack of funds, he and Eugenia are eventually married, and several children are born. One day, William discovers that his wife has a shocking secret, and his life will never be the same.
