Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
This thriller concerns Freddy (Michel Boujenah), the unsophisticated manager of a porno theater who has fallen in love with the young striptease artist who supplies entertainment between hardcore films. But unknown to Freddy, she is also involved in a drug ring. One day Freddy is shot during a hold-up and is hospitalized. An inept and amusing police inspector checks out the crime scene, though he's no protection when drug dealers show up to ask Freddy what happened with their last shipment. It seems a valuable drugs shipment has come up missing; although Freddy has no clue at first, he starts to figure out who might have the dope, and gets in way over his head.
