Synopsis
A traveling theater troupe is divided by the romantic unrest of several couples in this sometimes macabre and uneven comedy drama. Baptiste (Guy Marchand) is the troupe's director who finds his creativity has been drained and who is in the process of splitting with his actress-wife Sarah (Caroline Cellier). Baptiste becomes friends with novelty-shop owner Charlie (Michel Galabru) -- who is later hacked to death by his wife Germaine (Marie Dubois) before she ends her own life by slashing her wrists.
