Film Synopsis

Clodo the dog may look like a tramp, with his long scruffy hair, but he has a heart of gold, not that his present owners, a Parisian couple, appreciate that.  Abandoned by his owners at the start of their holidays, Clodo soon finds a new friend in Fabien, a young farm worker.  The latter thinks only of Arlène, the childhood friend who has become the object of his affection, but she is far away, studying in Paris.  Fabien's hopes are revived when Arlène makes an unexpected return...
