When a disaffected, unemployed man's lost knife turns up stuck in a dead body, he's pulled into a surrealistic, darkly comic web of murder and deceit that all leads back to his almost vacant, prefabricated high-rise condo building and the police inspector upstairs. Grim, off-putting stuff from iconoclast Blier.
Murder, committed by various people for various reasons, is the subject of Bertrand Blier's dark and penetrating comedy.
Alphonse Tram is a little surprised when he finds his switchblade embedded in the body of a total stranger -- after all, he's sure he didn't put it there.
But others who have killed remember their actions very well. And Alphonse befriends one of those guilty parties... one whose victim just happened to be Alphonse Tram's wife.
Additional cast: Marco Perrin; Jean Benguigui; Jean Rougerie; Liliane Rovere; Bernard Crommbey; Michel Fortin; Roger Riffard; and Maurice Travail.

Review 1:
"Brilliantly shot by Jean Penzer....The deadpan humour night-time settings and city locations are reminiscent of Roy Anderssons' equally oblique SONGS FROM THE SECOND FLOOR."
