København på lattergas handler om den banalisering, der griber om sig i København. Om developere, der ser byen som én stor forretning. Om politikere,der tænker som developere. Om arkitekter, der tænker som alle de andre. Om turister, der tramper byen flad. Om københavnere, der træder vande i nutid.
