Synopsis

[edit]

In provincial Grande the spoilt Micheline continually displays entitled behaviour and tries to steal the boyfriends of other girls. To teach her a lesson some locals led by Jacques stage a fake kidnapping and hold her in a nearby forest. Even then she still manages to impose her will on her captors. When real criminals then kidnap her for ransom, Jacques and his companions set out to rescue her.
