A zany peek into the bedrooms of the future.

Comedy

Gilles, who operates a money losing garage, teams up with his friends Max, who operates a scrap yard, and lawyer Xavier to open a brothel catering to women. They get the idea from Gilles' secretary Irma, a former prostitute. They are assisted in the implementation by Max's wife Juliette and Sabine who is mad for Gilles. Unfortunately Gilles has fallen for Florence the daughter of the conservative Prime Minister and his wife. When the Prime Minister tries to shut down the brothel Gilles decides to stand against him in the election.

VIBE

This is a wild, fast-paced romp filled with outrageous situations and cheeky humor. Expect a barrage of gags and a satirical jab at societal norms, all wrapped in a distinctly retro, uninhibited package.
