Odette Piquet

In 1930 Marseilles, two small-time crooks join forces when they meet brawling over a woman. Starting with fixed horse races and fights, they start to find themselves doing jobs for the local gangster bosses. When they decide to go into the business for themselves, their easy-going approach to crime starts to change.

Based on the novel by Raymond Queneau, this surreal French comedy follows a precocious ten-year-old country girl as she gallivants through Paris during a Métro strike.
