Plot

Classical comedy in which gods Jupiter and Mercury go down to Earth to enjoy human sexual pleasures.

Gods that fall in love with humans. Humans deceived by divine powers. Wars won by Divine Grace.

Terrific fusses around a carriage. A carriage plentiful of farce. A farce that become two infants. Two infants, symbols of divine power and human misery.
