The third movie in French film-maker Jacques Tati's series of comedies in which he stars as the accident-prone Monsieur Hulot, who creates chaos wherever he goes. Hulot and a group of American women tourists travel through Paris. While he struggles to keep an appointment, they search for the romantic Paris of old. Tati's satirical view of modern city life was played out entirely on a vast mobile set, known as `Tativille', just outside Paris.
