Synopsis
Perhaps it’s an invitation to pleasure…
Who is crazy? He who believes or he who knows? Who knows…
Bumpkins and yokels will bear the brunt in this Swiss tale in which a sensual and cruel beauty protects her innocence.
Emil Pointpoirot, hot and flustered, the accomplice of all beauties, be they dazzling or impassive, understands how to win his freedom while brightening up a dinner party of the damned.
Perhaps it’s a political fable…
In a Switzerland somewhere and nowhere, the military have taken over, a delighted woman has inherited a large amount of money, her family schemes and the State plots.
Innocence and madness are the instruments of manipulation.
Next year in Switzerland, if all goes according to plan…
Perhaps it’s a thriller…
A young girl thinks that tomorrow will be the most beautiful day of her life. She accidentally kills off her whole family, who’d hired a killer – a madman they’d sneaked out of the local asylum – to knock her off. Two investigators decide to wait rather than investigate.
Everyone will die while the docile policemen sit back and let it happen.
