A charismatic boss shuts himself up in a pokey little niche. His disciples go visit him and hang on his every complaint. The boss realises that the experts are all the same, they reason with their arse and never raise their eyes; despite this he adores them and urges them to spend time with him. A woman regularly keeps their meeting place clean and the disciples dislike her as they hate cleanliness. The charismatic boss doesn’t meet the needs of his “flock” which is getting bigger and bigger, a crowd gathering beneath the niche: a revolt breaks out……

An electoral campaign is underway in an imaginary country. Two leaders fight over the voters, who cry in exasperation. The first leader is fat and whiny, the second smiling and aloof. A man with a laptop computer and a teenager with a stony face and muscular body look on as the political battle unfolds. An aggressive woman removes herself from the melancholy scene. After the victory of democratic optimism, the two observers kill the leader, who dies with a smile on his lips. Civil war breaks out.
