Federico Fellini welcomes us into his world of film making with a mockumentary about his life in film, as a Japanese film crew follows him around.

A crew that is filming a horror movie is stalked by a mysterious killer who slays three of the beautiful young actresses. There is a main suspect (a crew member that got fired shortly before the first murder occurs, after he had an argument with the first victim), a police inspector that doesn't search for possible other suspects and a dose of sleazy sex

With an actor who can't perform and a dissatisfied crew, a film director tries to create an emotional scene for his film - but the egos involved present true obstacles.

On a film set a light fixture breaks down. The two electricians Olaf and Stefan are called to replace it. The gaffer is not there, so Stefan sees his chance to prove himself to everyone. Olaf on the other side has made muffins and wants to eat them with Stefan, he couldn’t care less about the light. A delicate relationship drama between two tough guys ensues. And the film crew has to wait through it all.
