A couple of gay artists both masters of talking parrots depart from Rome for an international competition for the most beautiful and playful specimen of Cacatoa Alba. Fabio's parrot is called Teto, Ottavio's is called Isis. The competition takes place on the island of Tenerife at the Loro Parque, the largest zoo of parrots and other exotic animals in the world. On the ship Fabio (who is a creator of special effects for the cinema) makes a dream where a group of inseparable sing two of his favorite songs: one by Lucio Dalla, the other by the vocal group of Take Six. The same night Ottavio, who is a director, dreams of doing a photo shoot at Naomi Campbell who wanders among the cages of Loro Parque in a wonderful dress by Roberto Capucci.
