In a park, a mysterious man hands a girl from a middle-class family a few pictures, which shock her parents as they depict ancient buildings like the Parthenon and the Arc de Triomphe. The husband is troubled by hallucinations at night and seeks help from a doctor, but coincidentally, the female nurse takes a leave of absence. On her way home, she encounters a sadomasochistic hat merchant and a gambling priest. A professor hitching a ride with the nurse arrives at the police station to give a lecture but keeps getting interrupted; he eventually shares an experience of attending a banquet where friends chat on the toilet while eating in a restroom-like private room. A man suffering from cancer is informed that his daughter is missing, and although she is right beside him, a group of people continues to search for her. A gunman randomly shoots pedestrians in a high-rise building and is sentenced to death, yet it appears he is released in court. The police chief receives a call from his deceased sister and goes to the cemetery, only to find his spot taken by someone else… The film won the Silver Rabbit Award from the Italian Film Journalists Association in 1975.
