Dufourquet (Jean-Paul Belmondo) is in Paris on shore leave, eager to see his Agnes (Francoise Dorléac). When he finally briefly sees her, she's kidnapped and held for ransom by a treasure-hungry family friend. A James Bond spoof, in the wake of Belmondo's swashbuckling success, "Cartouche" (1962, opposite Claudia Cardinale), with puzzle solving, murder in Brasilia, art thieves, and a pursuit to find sacred Amazon treasure.

Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Screenplay.
