Two men (both being junior officers in Soviet Army, in 1986) are being held in a penal military prison. The room which they share looks like a dark cellar with a dripping sewer pipe running through it. One of the prisoners seems to be delirious and never stops talking. He tells stories of his past, does push-ups, comes up with crazy ideas and even mimics a heron in an attempt to cheer up his cellmate, leading only to an increase in his anger. The clumsy talker receives a violent beating from the enraged prisoner.The angry officer is then taken from the cell by a guard to clean up a dirty toilet bowl with a fork. Some time later, after the angry officer falls asleep, the insane officer defecates on their shared plate for eating (calling it "sweety bread"), smears feces over his belly and consumes a large portion of it. After doing so he offers a plate with the fecal matter to the other man right after he wakes up and drives him mad again. The two main characters go through a series of humiliating acts conducted by a guard and a captain who seems to have strong sadistic tendencies. The story resolves with an act of graphic violence, including rape, sodomy, disembowelment, committing suicide and having an uncontrolable urge to break out of the prison.

L'action se situe dans un espace unique tout le long du film, un salon d'un appartement pourvu d'un couloir en arrière-plan et d'une porte d'entrée à gauche. L'ensemble se présente comme une scène de théâtre, présentation accentuée par les rires enregistrés récurrents qui ponctuent le film et rappellent le sitcom. La pièce assez vaste comporte un canapé, une lampe de chevet, un téléphone sur un petit meuble et une planche à repasser. Les trois personnages sont trois lapins de forme humanoïde : Jack, homme, en costume noir qui entre et sort à plusieurs reprises, Suzie, femme en robe de chambre principalement occupée à repasser du linge, et Jane, femme, qui ne quitte pas le canapé et ne dit pas un mot de tout le film. L'éclairage de la pièce, sommaire, fournit une demi-obscurité.

The film follows five simultaneous, loosely linked plot lines, that intertwine and scramble together. A man (Tadanobu Asano) keeps killing his wife (Reika Hashimoto) and burying her in the woods only to find her alive, furious, and waiting for him when he returns home. A suburban family's life is disrupted when the father (Ittoku Kishibe) is permanently hypnotized into believing he is a bird and tries to learn how to fly. A trio of aimless youth pass time by burgling houses. A murderous advertising executive (Kyōko Koizumi) tries to imagine ideas for commercials. The stories clash together through the intervention of a thuggish hitman (Vinnie Jones) and his translator (Yoshiyoshi Arakawa).

Jerry is an upbeat man who works at a bathtub factory, and lives in a modified apartment above a bowling alley with his dog Bosco and his cat, Mr. Whiskers. Jerry is a man with an innocent, almost child-like demeanor, and suffers from delusions and hallucinations that manifest in the form of his pets talking to him. Bosco often represents his good intentions while Mr. Whiskers represents his more violent nature. One day, his manager compliments his hard work and chooses him to help organize an employee barbecue, and he gladly accepts the opportunity to work with his workplace crush, a British woman named Fiona. The following day he asks her out on a date. She initially agrees, though with reluctance, but then stands him up to go to a karaoke party with two other girls who work with her in the accounting department at work, Lisa and Alison. After the party, Fiona's car won't start, leading her to flag down Jerry as he drives by. Fiona offers to take him out for a late dinner to make up for standing him up on the original date, but on the way, Jerry accidentally hits a stag which crashes through his windshield. Jerry's hallucinations show the deer crying out in pain and begging Jerry to kill it so he slits the deer's throat. Fiona, terrified, runs off into the woods. Jerry pursues her and accidentally stabs her. Apologizing for his actions, Jerry kills Fiona to end her pain.

Jong-goo, policier dans la petite ville de Gok-seong, est confronté à des meurtres très violents commis par des personnes qui, après une soudaine éruption cutanée, sont soudainement prises de démence avant de devenir catatoniques. Au fil de ses investigations, la rumeur le conduit à soupçonner un Japonais qui vit isolé dans la forêt. Pour l'interroger, il fait appel à un diacre parlant japonais et, avec un collègue, ils fouillent sa cabane en son absence. L'autre policier trouve des photos des villageois infectés et assassinés et certaines de leurs affaires mais est trop choqué pour dire quoi que ce soit aux autres. Le chien de garde de l'étranger attaque le diacre et Jong-goo. Le Japonais arrive et apaise le chien, et les trois autres partent.
