Synopsis:

Harbor Lights: In a coastal village a faulty street lantern lands on the rubbish yard. During a storm a fishermen's boat is in trouble. The big lighthouse has fallen asleep, but the street lantern saves the boat. November Diversion: On a November day a man deposits a flower garland for his old car at the junk yard. But the place appears to be a labyrinth in which he gets lost. The False Note: A day in the life of an organ grinder, down on his luck, who wanders the streets of Paris, dreaming of what might be. He can't help but crank out the occasional false note, just often enough to enrage his listeners and discourage any donations. He dreams of playing a large pipe organ. Chromophobia: Soldiers take over a town, removing all color, pets, and art. Residents are imprisoned; a decorative building becomes a guard tower; the cock at the top of a dome is pulled down and replaced with a raven. But irrepressible impulses remain, especially in a child with her watering can and an artist with his paintbrush. A flower gives rise to a jester who counterattacks. Is the seed mightier than the sword? Sirene: Monsterlike cranes reign over an inhospitable harbour as prehistorical reptiles. The only human being they accept is a lonesome fisherman. He is to witness a strange encounter between a ship's mate and a mermaid. Imagination or reality? Goldframe: Jason Goldframe, a filmmaker specialized in doing things no one has ever done before, wants to fool his own shadow. To Speak or Not to Speak: In a world where people are easily indoctrinated by speech, a reporter wants to know what people think about the actual political situation? Operation X-70: The innocent country Nebelux is accidentally bombarded with the poison gas X-70, designed to keep Asiatics in a lethargic and euphoric state. Pegasus: A not so busy farmer wants to kill a mosquito by trying to beat him with a hammer on metal plates. While outside combines are harvesting his crops, inside his eye falls on pictures of Pegasus, the mythical flying horse. He gets a luminous idea. With the plates the farmer blacksmiths an iron version of Pegasus, takes it to the field and starts worshiping it, only to be driven inside by heavy rain. The next morning he visits his false god again, not knowing what the creature is capable of. Harpya: A city dweller, out for an evening stroll, hears a woman's cries for help and rescues her from an assailant who is trying to drown her in a public fountain. However, when our mild-mannered hero pulls her from the water, she proves to be not a woman but a harpy - with a woman's face and breasts and the body of bird of prey. He takes her home and treats her like a human, but she is true to her nature, mercilessly and ravenously taking command of the household, dispatching his pet, and trying to make sure he can't leave. When he does manage, by a clever ruse, to get out of the flat and enjoy a snack, things don't go as he'd hoped. Nocturnal Butterflies: Atraksion: A group of convicts slowly drag their balls and chains through a desolate landscape. One of them discovers a strange structure and decides to climb it.
