PROD DES Pierre-François Limbosch

It is Fate that brings together Darry Marzouki, an unemployed conjuror, and Irène Montier Duval, a bourgeois beauty with a bag stuffed with high denomination banknotes. Irène takes an instant liking to Darry and explains that she was to have served as an intermediary in the sale of arms between a French minister and Korea. The minister has betrayed her so she is out for revenge, hopefully with Darry’s assistance.. —filmsdefrance.com
