Film Synopsis
A film composed of several sketches, each involving several wild
characters who are driven to the absolute limits of their meanness,
impotence and madness. In one sketch, Jenny visits a reclusive
writer who does everything he can to convince her that he is
happy. In another, a plumber called to a hospital to fix a leak
ends up in a very nasty position...
