Comedy
Cruchot's police office moves into a new building. They do not only get high tech equipment, but also four young female police officers to educate. All of them scramble to work with them -- and cause pure chaos while being distracted by the fine ladies. Then they get into real trouble when one after the other of their female colleagues is kidnapped.
VIBE
A whirlwind of mistaken identities and escalating absurdity. Expect broad gags, charmingly dated tech, and a chaotic energy fueled by well-meaning but bumbling gendarmes. It's pure, unadulterated French farce.
