Dans une Italie où Berlusconi contrôle la quasi-totalité des médias, Sabina Guzzanti, célèbre humoriste italienne, voit son show déprogrammé de la télévision publique après sa première diffusion sous prétexte de « vulgarité » et d’insultes au gouvernement. À l’occasion de cette mise à pied, Sabina Guzzanti va enquêter avec autant d’humour que de sérieux auprès de la classe politique et médiatique sur l’état de la démocratie en Italie et en Europe.

Celsius 41.11 defends Bush against five of the arguments advanced by Fahrenheit 9/11 and additionally criticizes John Kerry, arguing that his opposition to the Vietnam war and his military service in that same war are contradictory positions. The opening images of the film are of the second plane hitting the World Trade Center on September 11. The film then moves to clips of the demonstrations against the war in Iraq, including an interview with an unnamed protester who says she would be happy to live under a dictatorship if the ruler provided universal health care. The next segment shows images of dead children.

Un rêve tchèque est le projet de fin d'études de deux étudiants en cinéma. Ils montent un canular mettant en scène un faux supermarché. Dans la république tchèque post-communiste, les habitants n'ont qu'une envie : consommer. La campagne de publicité fait venir plusieurs milliers de personnes devant une simple bâche tendue représentant un supermarché et leur renvoyant la question sur leurs besoins de consommation.
