Kaos is an adaptation of four tales by Pirandello, set in the famed author's native Sicily. In The Other Son, a mother rejects the love of a son who too closely resembles the rapist who fathered him. In Moon Sickness, an unfaithful young bride discovers that her husband is a werewolf. "The Jar" features the popular Sicilian comedy team of Franco Franchi and Ciccio Ingrassia in a satire about the greed of a wealthy landowner. In Requiem, a community of impoverished shepherds connives to establish their own cemetery.
