A 3-episode film starring popular comedians Franchi and Ingrassia. In the first episode, Carlo and Oreste are married to the same woman; when she delivers twins, they fight for paternity. In the second episode, Celestina needs a heir to receive her dead husband's fortune. In the third episode, young widow Daisy arrives in Italy to meet her deceased much-older husband's family and ends up marrying his great-grandson.

A fig tree growing in the estates of Baron Anteo Pellacani has been worshipped since the Middle Ages, after a Saint was supposedly martyred there. The Baron, who was crippled in a fig tree-related accident and has since become a raging atheist, vows to tear it down—until he mistakes a beautiful prostitute momentarily lying on the tree for the Saint herself, falling in love with her. Her pimp, his relatives and the clergy try to take advantage of his newfound faith.
