Overview

The Man In The Hat sets off from Marseilles in a small Fiat 500. On the seat beside him is a framed photograph of an unknown woman. Behind him is a 2CV into which is squeezed Five Bald Men. Why are they chasing him? And how can he shake them off? As he travels North through France, he encounters razeteurs, women with stories to tell, bullfights, plenty of delicious food, a damp man, mechanics, nuns, a convention of Chrystallographers and much more, coming face to face with the vivid eccentricities of an old country.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A delightfully rambling road movie through eccentric rural France, where the journey and its absurd encounters matter far more than any rational destination. It's a tender picaresque that treats human oddity as something to be savored rather than explained.
