The business of death provides the framework for this black comedy about a mortician's assistant who wants to marry an executioner's daughter. Her father really wants to change professions, but cannot, as he will lose his new government-sponsored apartment. The young man is persuaded to take over the job, but he swears he will quit before he must kill someone. Unfortunately, an execution is scheduled shortly before the beginning of a major carnival, a time when many executions are halted. The bride and groom travel there, hoping the victim will be pardoned, but he is not and the groom must fulfill his duty. Although he swears he will never do another, his face tells another story, and the old executioner knows that many more state-sanctioned deaths will follow.

In a small spanish town, a group of old ladies decide to celebrate Christmas Eve with a "Sit a poor man at your table" dinner: each wealthy household of the town will have a homeless person dining with them that night. The celebrations also include a parade, and in it we find Plácido, the humble owner of a three-wheeler, whose family is forced to live in a public lavatory because of the lack of money to pay the rent, and who has to pay the second bill of his vehicle before midnight or else he will lose it.

This is an effective satire directed by Luis Berlanga that pans charity from the head - the cold, calculated or unthinking kind - as versus charity from the heart. The focus is on Placido (Casto Sendra-Cassen), a truckdriver who has little money and so making regular payments on his truck can be difficult, so much so that he gets behind and is in danger of having his vehicle repossessed. Meanwhile, he gets involved in a local, annual charity drive that opens up his eyes to the problems and foibles of other impoverished people. After those experiences, Placido has a different attitude toward his monthly payments.

A renown atomic scientist escapes from his world of formulas and destruction and finds a respite in a Spanish seaside village.

Corre implacable 1947, undécimo año triunfal del glorioso Alzamiento Nacional. Tras cumplir de cabo a rabo su condena en el último campo de concentración para prisioneros de la República, Pepe Gazuza sale como transeúnte a un país tomado por el que campan los fantasmas del hambre, la picaresca del estraperlo y la humanidad de los pobres. Sin oficio ni beneficio, Gazuza vagará por las calles de una España yerma donde todo son secundarios buscándose las habichuelas. Entre ellos Ingrid, una rutilante fatale que guarda ausencia a su misterioso marido; Petro, criada multitarea que ha dejado el pueblo para servir en la capital, donde se dejará cortejar por el fascista Alfredi o, o Prosapio Pérez, viajante de lo inverosímil y mientras, los americanos, los rusos y hasta los andorranos, acechan.
