Pier Paolo Pasolini sets out to interview Italians about sex, apparently their least favorite thing to talk about in public: he asks children if they know where babies come from; asks old and young women if they support gender equality; asks both sexes if a woman's virginity still matters, what do they think of homosexuality, if divorce should be legal, or if they support the recent abolition of brothels. He interviews blue-collar workers, intellectuals, college students, rural farmers, the bourgeoisie, and every other kind of people, painting a vivid portrait of a rapidly-industrializing Italy, hanging between modernity and tradition — toward both of which Pasolini shows equal distrust.

5-month-old rescue kittens (and blood sisters) Clementine and Sage react to the first ever bout of heavy rain they’ve experienced. The heavy rain makes their typical boisterous and playful actions screech to a halt, as they begin to mirror the rain’s dreary, lull-like nature in their own temperaments. Ch1: The film goes from the inside of a mixing bowl catching dripping water. The kittens are hesitant at first, but soon both stare out the window (Ch2), edited as indistinguishable from one another, as they both partake in the same curiosity towards the rain. Ch3 sees the kittens find peace with their new discovery, and rest, while the world itself moves on - much like how we exit from the bowl, and end up becoming attached to the cats, the end of Ch3 sees us attached to a window, peering in, making audiences believe Ch4 would be from the perspective of the world entire. Each chapter becomes more consequential, larger, and less isolated, as if becoming privy to the world.
