Dictator Octavio Prado Roth, supported by a few people, like the capitalist Moren, reigns over the population of an imaginary country in Latin America. However, a protest movement seems to be emerging. Professor Palmas, who supports the revolutionaries, discovers a process allowing matter to be split. He created "La poupée" (the doll), Marion’s clone, Moren's wife and mistress of the dictator. "The doll", animated by Professor Palmas who slips into the doll, encourages the population to revolt...
