Le film se présente comme une série de croquis caricaturaux des militaires d'un escadron de cavalerie française à la fin du XIX siècle. Les officiers supérieurs donnent des ordres ambigus ou difficiles à exécuter qui sont transmis par la voix hiérarchique aux officiers puis aux sous-officiers, parmi lesquels l'adjudant Flick interprété par Paolo Stoppa, et enfin à la troupe qui en subit les conséquences.

Orgon est un homme de biens dupé par la fausse piété du sans le sou Tartuffe. Orgon le prend dans sa maison, le croyant un parangon de vertu. Orgon ordonne à sa fille de rejeter son fiancé et d'épouser Tartuffe. D'abord Dorine, la servante de la famille, tente une stratégie pour éviter le mariage ; puis le fils d'Orgon tente sa chance. Ils irritent Orgon, et pour prouver la puissance paternelle, il déshérite son fils et fait de Tartuffe son héritier. Ensuite, la femme d'Orgon essaie d'apporter un aperçu à son mari, un stratagème qui se retourne partiellement contre lui. Avec l'huissier à la porte ordonnant à Orgon de quitter sa propre maison et avec Tartuffe à la cour pour prouver qu'Orgon est un traître, tout semble perdu.

Après avoir essayé pendant longtemps sur la scène, Ettore Petrolini réinvente Sganarelle, d'une manière proche au caractère Bertoldo de Giulio Cesare Croce. Se référant à Petrolini, le critique de cinéma Filippo Sacchi avait écrit " Vous devez l'accepter tel qu'il est, avec son tempérament et ses qualités admirables ... avec le grotesque et la blague qui échappent même sans logique dans le genre comique"
