Synopsis :
In 1971, eight American militants were accused of "conspiracy in order to provoke a riot" and judged during the "Chicago Eight" trial. Jean-Luc Godard and Jean-Pierre Gorin propose a burlesque remake of this trial : a judge, named Ernest Adolf Himmler, draws on Playboy playmates instead of hearing the testimonies. A surprising mixing of political cinema and mockery which caricatures the "bourgeoise" justice.
