A strange surrealistic couple of small-time swindlers travelling around France in a caravan, Víctor and Betty are dismayed to find themselves caught up in an international money trafficking scam. Enter the "serious side" of this entertaining comedy: misunderstandings, tricks and recurring situations taking them from Switzerland to the Caribbean in an attempt to track down a briefcase stuffed with money.
CLAUDE CHABROL
Claude Chabrol was born in Paris in 1930. Becoming the forerunner of French cinema's Nouvelle Vague with his first work Le beau Serge (1958), he has directed fifty films in all, combining a certain amount of commercialism with more conventional middle class attitudes. L'enfer (1994) and La Cérémonie (1995) are his most recent films.
