A parable on the whisperings of the soul that only madmen and vagabonds are capable of hearing. Odd couple Ivo Salvini, recently released from a mental asylum, and former prefect Gonnella wander through the countryside and discover a dystopia made of television commercials, beauty pageants, rock music, Catholicism, and pagan rituals.

Benito Mussolini resurfaces in Rome 72 years after his death, as if not a single day had passed. Finding a country still full of problems, both old and new, his firebrand rhetoric wins him once again the hearts and minds of millions of Italians — who see him as a wacky reenactor who speaks inconvenient truths to power.

Although he looks like a man, Amadeo Rossi has a child's soul. Like a child, he would like to pursue his dreams and live his life as if it were a game. Yet, this is something that adults are not allowed to do, since they are afraid of wasting time. Amadeo's life will have a meaning when he manages to find his own way towards a perfect world, the same world that a bad but much admired Minister has already invented (and built). This world will be the magical place where Jennifer will speak to him at last, as if in a dream within a dream. However, Minister Ovitac's world will only and secretly open its doors to his most faithful servants; the Uomo Samargantico will be able to enter it, too, although nobody knows who this mysterious man might be, or whether he really exists. Who is going to accompany Amadeo throughout his other-worldly journey?

Mimì reunites after many years with Caterina, with whom he has always been secretly in love. When her husband dies, Mimì decides to become part of her life.

Conqueror of the World, a thrilling and explosive story of violence...of human drama, of a rare man, strong and primitive. Set two hundred thousand years ago, when the human race had to adapt to their brutal, savage environment or disappear into oblivion.
