Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
Tunisia is a rough placed to be trapped in, especially if you are an Israeli spy (Jean-Pierre Marielle) on the run. Fortunately, the French embassy gives the ill-fated fellow a place to hide. Unfortunately, they can't smuggle him out, because there is an airline strike. Fortunately, he finds love and comfort with a young Frenchwoman (Mireille Darc) working at the embassy. Eventually, she convinces a French friend of hers (Michel Constantin) to help them escape. This comedy/spy movie is in French.
