С незапамятных времен два обезьяньих племени привыкли бояться и ненавидеть друг друга. Но юный Комо из племени Воонко, которое обитает в кронах деревьев, не хочет верить страшным сказкам о племени Лаанко, живущем внизу. И когда в один прекрасный день под Комом обломилась ветка, он рухнул вниз прямо под ноги Королю племени Лаанко, охотившемуся на тигров. Так начались удивительные приключения Комо в стране «цивилизованных» обезьян. Они ходят на двух ногах, не лазают по деревьям, носят одежду, слушают музыку и иногда даже читают книги. Но при этом все равно остаются такими же обезьянами, как и родное племя Комо…

In this comedy, the requirements of living a respectable life grow too great for Maurice, as do the burdens of his well-paid executive position. After getting fired when a business proposal he has worked on is translated very badly to his English boss, he confides that he has lost his job to his wife. When she freaks out about that, he gets into his camper and heads south. There, a group of wandering Arab thieves rob him of everything he has of value but then admit him into their circle, calling him "Mohamed."

This odd film is a major representative of an even odder film genre: direct-to-celluloid opera. It was commissioned by the Portuguese master of style, director Manoel de Oliveira from composer João Paes. Musically, it ranges from 19th-century romanticism to popular, modernist and even "post-modernist" styles. In the initially tame story, a host-narrator tells the story of a wedding between the two lovebirds: Viscount d'Aveleda and the beautiful Marguerite. However, what happens in the bridal chamber is incredibly bizarre. The events after that are even stranger (the film out-does even Luis Buñuel in that department), and the wedding guests and family indulge in cannibalism, among other perversions.
