An abandoned factory, lay-bys and small country roads set the scene for Russian tourist Youri's first journey through France. Arriving in Paris, his chance meeting with a soldier, who celebrates his recent demob with an athletic identity check, takes us on a strange adventure where squatters, workmen, policemen and foreign holidaymakers take on expert roles, introducing them to some very specialized and extraordinary local delicacies. A collection of powerful scenes hit the spot under the Cadinot's direction.
