L'evènement le plus important dépuis que l'homme à marche sur la lune
Jacques Demy / FR, IT, 1973 / 96 min.
Absurdist comedy with Marcello Mastroianni and Catherine Deneuve about a man who discovers he is four months pregnant and subsequently becomes a media hype. Jacques Demy has fun exploring what could happen in such a topsy-turvy world.
Marco (Marcello Mastroianni), an Italian driving instructor living in Paris doesn’t feel well and visits his doctor who discovers the former is... four months pregnant. The medical miracle is global news and Marco is hounded by the press, scientists and advertising companies all looking to cash in.
