In this Franco-Italian gangster parody, a shopkeeper on his way to an Italian holiday suffers a crash that totals his car. The culprit can only compensate his ruined trip by driving an American friend's car from Naples to Bordeaux, but as it happens to be filled with such contraband as stolen money, jewelry and drugs, the involuntary and unwitting companions in crime soon attract all but recreational attention from the "milieu".

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A hapless shopkeeper gets swept into an increasingly ridiculous cross-border adventure when he agrees to drive a car full of contraband to cover his vacation debts. It's a breezy comedy caper where nothing goes as planned and ordinary people find themselves hilariously over their heads.
