In a chain reaction of romantic adventures, various people play musical beds in a remake of Max Ophul's "La Ronde."

Bryan is an American journalist, married with two young daughters. Assigned to cover the Paris Conference on Vietnam, he is approached at the airport by two stewardesses, Corinne and Lucile. They meet again, talk politics, but the discussion veers off course: “Do you know how to make love? - Of course, I'm married.” Bryan sleeps with Corinne as Lucile looks on, then confesses to both women: he feels no remorse, but he's sad that it's so easy to cheat on your wife. “Corinne is a free woman,” as Lucile later tells Bryan. The latter is too puritanical and romantic to accept being just another fling. He thinks of nothing but the young woman, and is constantly on the lookout for her.

A revived mummy needs the blood of young women to slake his thirst.

It is an ordinary afternoon for young Mabo Keïta, at home, in Burkina Faso (West Africa). While his parents are taking a nap, he reads a schoolbook on the front porch when a stranger - an elderly man carrying his own hammock - appears for an unexpected visit. It turns out that the old man is a griot, a West African musician/entertainer whose performances include tribal histories and genealogies. The position of a griot is a time-honored one and passed down from father to son for many generations.
