Friends Bérenger and Jean are chatting on a café terrace one Sunday afternoon when suddenly a rhinoceros charges across the square. While everyone present discusses the incident in astonishment and horror, only Bérenger remains unmoved. The next day at the office, the event is hotly debated – until Madame Boeuf bursts in, delivers her husband's sick note, and breathlessly reports that a rhinoceros followed her. Soon after, it rushes up the stairs and is identified by Madame Boeuf as her husband. Gradually, more and more inhabitants of the provincial town transform into angry pachyderms. And suddenly, they are in the majority. Anyone who wants to belong also transforms – "one has to move with the times, after all."

Two giants of London's underworld clash: On one side, Jonathan Peachum, who has turned begging in the metropolis into a lucrative business. On the other, Macheath, known as Mackie Messer, the gang leader, who, thanks to his excellent connections with the police, is considered completely innocent. When Peachum's daughter Polly marries Macheath, the conflict erupts into open conflict. Can the marriage be annulled, perhaps even by hanging? The beggar king denounces the master criminal: Mackie Messer is forced into hiding, betrays Polly, and is betrayed himself. And above it all, the moon shines over Soho!
