Summary
So far, Alexis’s life has been a long succession of disasters and
disappointments. A failed actor with a penchant for horror
movies, he now works as a night watchman at a depot. His love
life has been as lacklustre as his professional life, until he meets
Laura. The latter uses all her guile and feminine charms to
remould Alexis, changing him from a retarded adolescent into a dutiful family
man. But is this what Alexis needs to be happy...?
