Idiot in Paris
Directed by Serge Korber
Produced by Gaumont International
A lighthearted, warmly comedic tale of a simple village man's dream of Paris realized through the kindness of a fellow outsider.
Goubi, the simpleton of his village in the French Department Allier, has but one wish: to see Paris. One day, the truckers Grafouillère deposit a drunk Goubi in the biggest market of Paris (the "Halles"). The poor man is completely lost, but the meat merchant Dessertine takes him under his wings when he hears that Goubi was likewise 'raised by the State'...
