People meet and chat at Ridolfo's Coffeehouse; the conversations are mostly about money, but also about feelings, ideals, friendship, love, fidelity and respectability.

At the start of the 20th century, a man lives in solitude on an island. One day on the mainland, he saves a young woman from some nasty folk and takes her with him to his island. Her former captors soon find the island as well.

The setting is Les Fauvettes School for Girls just after WWI, where sternly Teutonic headmistress Ingrid Caven vies with Catherine Jourdan, a morphine addicted, fabric fetishist gym teacher, for the sexual favours of liquid eyed nymphet Scyluna. Meanwhile the chaplain conducts a nude exorcism.

Satire on 19th-century class relations and thinly veiled commentary on the failure of the 1968 political revolution.
