The Sheep Has Five Legs

The Incomparable FERNANDEL...in a delightful 'tour de force'

A lighthearted, character-driven comedy built on Fernandel's virtuosic performance as six distinct family members, celebrating small-town French life and familial reunion with warmth and humor.

A publicity-minded French mayor reunites quintuplets and their earthy father, all six played by Fernandel.
