By coincidence, the coach arrives on the same ship that carries an Italian commedia dell'arte troupe composed of men, women and children who perform as singers, actors, acrobats and comics.

Sur les restes du corps de la femme, il n'y a cependant aucune trace de blessure par balle et, lors du procès, l'accusé, qui semble hypnotisé, refuse de répondre. L'arrivée de l'ex-avocat Cidoni, qui prend la place de la défense, renverse la thèse de l'accusation et démontre au contraire que la victime n'était pas une fille naïve comme on le croyait jusqu'alors.

After numerous fruitless negotiations with the Allies about the independence of Austria, the Austrian prime minister prompts his fellow countrymen to shred their four-language identity cards, which have been issued by the Allies, thus sending a clear signal to the world. Thereupon, Austria is charged for breaking the "world peace" at the fictitious "world court". The implicated message is clear: in the same manner as Austria was, in Austria's eyes, falsely indicted for breaking the world peace (1914 and 1939), they are now being indicted again in 2000.
