In the film's first portion, filmed in B&W, Dr. Sergio, a psychiatrist, appears on a television program on a panel with three other contemporary psychiatrists after he claims to have conducted experiments on four volunteer drug addicts with LSD in order to investigate his claim that sexual perversion is caused by use of illegal drugs. As evidence, he presents a series of documented accounts of drug use which lead to lewd and bizarre sexual acts. Marins appears (as himself) on the panel with the psychiatrists as some type of expert on the subject of depravity. During the program, Dr. Sergio recounts the experiment to his colleagues on the panel, who reject his claims.

Au lendemain de la fusillade du Champ-de-Mars du 17 juillet 1791, des bateleurs entreprennent de jouer les principaux événements des deux années qui viennent de s’écouler : de la réunion des États généraux à la proclamation de la loi martiale, en passant par la prise de la Bastille, la Grande Peur, et la nuit du 4 août. Dans une grande liesse populaire, ils tentent de montrer le détournement des espoirs, l’explosion de la joie puis l’effondrement du rêve d’égalité des droits. Pour ce faire, les bateleurs utilisent toutes les formes théâtrales, de la pantomime à la tragédie, des marionnettes à l’opéra-bouffe. Ils représentent ainsi les personnages importants ou humbles de cette année décisive et prennent à leur compte la phrase de Saint-Just : « La révolution doit s’arrêter à la perfection du bonheur.
