Une parodie de western représentant la bataille de Little Big Horn (1876) menée par le général Custer, le film est tourné sur le chantier du futur Forum des Halles dans le centre de Paris des années soixante-dix en lieu et place de la destruction des pavillons Baltard. Dans cette farce anachronique, le général Custer veut parquer et exterminer les Indiens devenus résistants aux persécutions. Marie-Hélène de Boismonfrais, tout de blanc vêtue, est séduite par Custer. Elle symbolise « la femme blanche » que Mitch, l'éclaireur indien de Custer, ne doit pas toucher. Buffalo Bill y joue les trublions.

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.
