Black humor and inside political jokes characterize this eccentric Italian comedy. As a father and his teenaged daughter ride on a train, the father spins strange yarns about the other passengers. In the first, an citizen is distressed to find that upon awakening, he cannot inhale sufficient air. He is informed by workmen that his air supply is being curtailed because he hasn't paid his bill. The man frantically wades through a morass of bureaucracy to get his air turned on again. In the second story a man in a large market as he is being purchased by a comely redhead who chose him because he seemed tender. She takes him home for love, but he refuses. She returns him to the market claiming the manager sold her old merchandise. The final tale contains a message that only native Italians may truly appreciate. It describes a war between two families. Though neighbors, one is wealthy, and the other poor. As the feud reaches its climax, enhanced by footage of the Bosnian, Cuban, and Rwandan, conflicts, the film ends with the train passengers wandering within a burned out train.
