Jacques Charrier and Charles Aznavour meet by chance late on a Saturday afternoon and decide to go looking for women together.
Jean-Pierre Mocky's first movie as director has an interesting if ultimately moral arc. Aznavour is shy and uncertain. He hopes to find a wife. Charriere says he believes in one true love, and not settling for less.... but is quite willing to settle for a physical encounter when he can find one. As they encounter a long series of beautiful women looking for someone who seems to be neither Charrier nor Aznavour, the two of them become more desperate and despairing, playing tricks in the hope that it will fool women who wish to be fooled,and revealing depths and shallowness of character along the way, in a Paris that seems to be populated solely with good-looking people looking for sex and unable to find it.
