In a main thoroughfare on the outskirts of Rome, thousands of motorists are stuck in terrible traffic jam for twenty-four hours. In a stretch of road there is a variety of characters whose behaviour becomes strange. There is a selfish and hypocritical entrepreneur in a luxury car; a young hippie girl harassed and then raped by some dandies and a family from Naples on the way to Rome to abort their daughter. There is also an old couple that argues constantly; a patient that dies in the ambulance; an old actor staying in a small country house near the road; a female globetrotter who is hitch-hiking to the stopped cars and some young members of Far Left Wing among others. The day the traffic jam clears, the entrepreneur hires the girl from Naples for a record company in exchange for a sexual service. The girl is raped and then comforted by a man who wants to avenge her but then gives up. The rapists leave quietly once more.

À Turin, le minable architecte Garrone, mondain et obsédé sexuel, est assassiné à l'aide d'un gros phallus de pierre. Le commissaire Santamaria, originaire de Rome et peu familier avec la capitale du Piémont, est diligenté sur l'affaire. Il soupçonne d'abord Anna Carla Dosio, riche bourgeoise qui s'ennuie auprès de son industriel de mari : deux domestiques qu'elle venait de renvoyer ont en effet livré à la police un brouillon de lettre où elle semblait souhaiter la mort de Garrone. Le destinataire de la lettre, Massimo Campi, issu d'une grande famille, devient dès lors suspect aussi, d'autant qu'il cache avoir passé le soir du crime avec son petit ami, Lello Riviera, jeune fonctionnaire municipal qui décide de mener sa propre enquête pour le sauver. Santamaria, aidé par son collègue De Palma et à l'occasion par une Anna Carla réjouie de cet intermède pimenté, découvre les différents aspects et quartiers de la ville : snobisme et futilité charmante de certains oisifs, vaste trafic de phallus sculptés, somptueuses villas anciennes sur les collines, jardins de l'austère veuve Inès Tabusso — champ de prostitution nocturne qu'elle voudrait bien lotir —, marché aux puces pittoresque du Balôn... où Lello est tué à son tour. Mis sur la piste par la possibilité dans le dialecte turinois d'un jeu de mots entre « poire » et « pierre », et par les complicités de Garrone avec un employé, voyeur comme lui, du service d'urbanisme de la ville, Santamaria finit par démasquer la coupable : Inès Tabusso, que l'architecte faisait chanter en la menaçant de bloquer son projet de lotissement. Le modeste commissaire et la séduisante Anna Carla peuvent désormais céder à leur attirance mutuelle.

After receiving a tractor as a gift from the kolkhoz of an unnamed Soviet village, communist mayor Peppone plans to twin Brescello with the unnamed town. After some failed attempts to block the major's plan, Don Camillo ultimately tricks Peppone into including him (under a false name and with forged papers) among the Italian communist representatives going on the other side of the iron curtain to attend the twinning ceremonies. Only Peppone and the other comrades from Brescello will know the priest's real identity. During the Russian stay they will face a series of situations that will show them both the political contradictions of Soviet Russia and the normal life of its common people.
