Summary
Maurice Berger is a hard working but crazy Parisian taxi driver. Today,
he’s finishing work for the summer holiday. His family is going
to Spain with his sister-in-law and her family; they’re going in the
taxi and towing a caravan. The customs check at the border is
pretty thorough, and the two men have some trouble smuggling in the
tobacco they need while on holiday. Next to them in the customs
hall is a beautiful blonde, who is smuggling a priceless stolen diamond
into Spain. Realising that the customs people are suspicious of her,
she slips the diamond into Maurice’s jacket pocket. She has found
out where the families are going, so she will find a way to get it back
later. Having overtaken them on the road, she pretends to have
broken down and asks Maurice for his help, as a ruse to go through his
pockets and recover the diamond – but it’s not there! In fact, he
was smuggling the tobacco in his jacket pockets, and has since emptied
it all out into a large jar. The diamond is mixed in with it, unbeknown
to everyone. The blonde is in league with some gangsters, so they find
ways to lure Maurice into a club they run, and it seems everyone wants
to dance near him and feel his pockets. Still failing to get
their booty, it’s obvious that they will stop at nothing to get what
they want from the innocent Maurice...
