Late one October night in 1999, a young woman leaves a friend's apartment
and finds herself alone in a Paris street. She has no money and no
means of identification and her name is Carole. Not sure what to do
next, she hails a taxi and is soon cruising down the empty streets of the
capital, with no destination in mind. Seeing that the woman cannot
pay her fare, the taxi driver takes her to the nearest police station.
It is too late for Carole to be interviewed, so she is dropped off at a nearby
hotel run by Max. Here, she is met by an unashamed communist, Voix
Grave, who takes advantage of the opportunity to go off on one of his anti-authority
tirades. Meanwhile, the police are busy conducting a search for a prostitute,
who happens to be the exact double of Carole...
