Summary

Michel Gaucher is a stuntman who is about to marry his fiancée, Jane Gardner. Unfortunately, on the morning of his wedding he has to cancel the ceremony because he is required to perform a stunt for a movie. The stunt goes awry and Michel ends up in a wheelchair, but this is not the end of his troubles. Jane has decided to put an end to their relationship and his producer no longer wants to employ him. Out of work, Michel has to occupy himself with a series of demeaning small jobs until he is once again hired as a stuntman, this time for the famous actor Bruno Ferrari, his double. Michel is surprised when he finds Jane on the set of the same movie...
