aka: Nos héros réussiront-ils à retrouver leur ami mystérieusement disparu en Afrique ?

Film Synopsis

Fausto di Salvio, a renowned publisher, has had enough of meetings and pointless receptions.  After the police have failed to find his brother-in-law, who went missing in Africa three years ago, he decides to act on his own initiative.  Off he goes to Angola, accompanied by his long-suffering accountant, Ubaldo Palmarini.  Fausto is not remotely fazed by the difficulties that he knows he will encounter as he pursues his mad quest.  In the end, he is sure that he will be reunited with his missing relative, or at least understand what has become of him.
