The film"s page
Meeting a movie team on location near his house, a young man gets a lot of encouragement for his dreaming career as a movie star in what was only sarcasm from the members of the team. This is the characteristic of a schpountz: someone who sees himself as a born movie comedian and is blind on the critics to his dream. After he has signed a fake contract which he blindly takes as genuine even if it is ridiculous, he goes to Paris without money to make his career.
