- DirectorJohann SchwarzerFour Arab men in white burnouses, two women in grey, and one female cook in striped burnous, are sitting in front of a cave in a forest path. (From a piece of grey cloth over the entrance to the cave, two 8-pointed white stars hang incongruously: the Production company's logo.) A pan hangs from a tripod. A girl in a colorful dress arrives with a Bucovina shepherd dog, and starts dancing in front of the men. First, half of the men go, then the others and the girl leave. Only one man stays, taking care of the food being prepared in the pot. Snivelling from their hiding place, a robber jumps him, and knocks him out with a blow. Three thugs join him, and they take whatever they find in the cave (guns). The dog comes back, and sits a while near the fallen cook. The Arabs return, and are alarmed at the robbery, and the killing of their cook. Meanwhile, somewhere in the forest, five girls reach a pond covered with moss, disrobe, and enter the water. Three are wearing headbands, but one takes hers off before getting wet. Refreshed now, the girls sit on towels on the grass to sundry - but they are attacked by the gang of robbers, and forced to follow them, leaving their clothes behind. One girl manages to escape, but she is hunted by two robbers. She jumps into the lake and swims away to the middle of it. The two men seem to be afraid of wetting their feet, and chose to fire their guns at her, but the girl escapes the shooting by diving deep into the lake, and they miss.

- DirectorJohann SchwarzerThree young women are smiling and playing in a lake, their nude bodies reflecting in the water, when a forest watcher appears from the wood, and chases them away. They get out of the water, pick their clothes from tree branches, and move away before putting them on. The bearded man seems to be shy, but he is chasing after them through the wood, anyway. the circular movement of that water.

- DirectorGeorges MélièsStarsMlle.

In a sunny day, on a lawn in the woods, three nude, young brunettes with little flower arrangements on their hair are playing a succession of three dexterity games: throwing and catching three arcs with the use of a thin long hook, jumping the rope (soon replaced by a long piece of light cloth), and using the arcs as hoops for a bit of croquet with appropriate mallets and balls.

- DirectorJohann SchwarzerA middle-aged man bare chest and wearing trousers, clears a shallow trench in the sand while a young woman draped in a long, flimsy veil looks on. The man leaves, but stays in the nearby wood at a watching distance, glancing at the girl divesting of her robe, sitting in the trench as if to sunbathe. She shifts positions a couple of times, but then the man returns, and starts covering her with sand. Unhappy, the girl gets up, picks a flask of lotion from the trench, and leaves with the man.
- DirectorJohann SchwarzerThe artist studio is decorated with a rug, a chaise longue, a small table, a plinth, a couple of copies of classic sculptures, a vase with flowers, a few prints on the walls, and on the wood paneled lower half of the wall, an 8-pointed star [Saturn-Film's logo]. The artist is wearing a white shift over his grey trousers, shirt and necktie, and he is wearing black shoes. With hammer and chisel, he applies the last touches on his last piece of sculpture - the three graces, standing nude on a rectangular podium covered with a white bed-shit. He steps back, contemplates his work, and rejoices on the beauty he has achieved. He goes out momentarily, and brings a bottle of champagne and a glass; before drinking, he makes a toast to his finished statue. He drinks, smokes a cigarette, and contemplates his work - until he falls asleep on the chaise longue. Obly then do the three graces stir, and tip-toe around their creator. One even dares to approach her lips to the artist's, and they dart back to their static positions. The artist wakes, throws kisses at the triple statue, kneeling in front of it, then drinks some more, and gets back to sleep. When he wakes up again, it seems he had some idea during his sleep; he takes the hammer and chisel again, and rectifies again the elbow of one the graces.
- DirectorJohann SchwarzerIn front of a round tent, a pasha is sitting on the grass; to the right of the tent's door, covered with a patterned blanket, is a flagpole - on top of which is an 8-pointed star [Saturn-Film's logo]. The pasha claps hands, and a servant comes to his bid. The lord is going to smoke from his water-pipe while he buys some new slave girls. The servant calls the seller and his two henchmen, who bring forth four girls in patterned burnooses. The first is totally undressed [facing the Arab, not the camera], and sent into the tent; the next girl gets topless, and also sent into the tent; the third is forced to undress by the henchmen, and also sent inside. The fourth, apparently a younger girl, is dismissed by the Arab after showing her small, firm breasts, and she goes back with the henchmen. Follows an argument over the price, and finally the slave master goes away, happy. The servant must help the pasha up, and the lord goes to his tent. The curtain falls over the door - and stays - and stays.
