В августе 1483 года таинственный посланник прибыл в замок Плесси-ле-Тур, где в уединении живет ослабленный болезнью король Людовик XI. Посланник раскрывает тайный план герцога Орлеанского — убить короля. Имея разветвленную сеть соглядатаев и шпионов король был в курсе всех событий. Его борьба с феодальной раздробленностью многим была поперек горла. Король окружил себя астрологами, боялся смерти, посылал богатые пожертвования в церкви, но до последней минуты обдумывал политические планы по сохранению целостности государства.

This "heist" film tells the story of a robbery in a stadium during the Le Mans 24 hour motorcycle race. Throughout the film are constant references to other movies in the genre. A policeman investigating the robbery is surprised to discover that the heist bears striking resemblance to the robbery depicted in Stanley Kubrick's 1956 film, The Killing. The robbery itself was perpetrated by Bernard, an ex-racer who dedicates the theft to a dead peer. He enlists the help of Thierry and several others to steal 6 million francs from the gate. He and his gang then hideout in the stadium until the race is over. Things are working against Bernard though. Two martial-arts experts try to cut in on the action. A gang member's girlfriend squeals to the cops, and an Arab assistant is killed.

L'amour des femmes
Michel Soutter

Although there are women in the lives of the three main protagonists -- a middle-aged architect, his construction designer, and a journalist -- the women are not as crucial to the men's search for an identity as the title might suggest. When the three men run into a former professor of the architect and designer, they are inspired by his fanfare and expansive nature. Still in search of solutions to their particular problems, the men head out to visit the professor and get to the bottom of their own issues. Unfortunately, the professor turns out to be more "loco" than otherwise, and the three men watch their hopes burst like a popped balloon -- it seems like their ability to assess human character should now be added to their list of problem spots.
