Avignon

Stefan and his troupe come to the Avignon Festival to perform the tabloid play "Ma soeur s'incruste". There he meets Fanny, an aspiring actress who plays in a classic work by Victor Hugo, and falls under her spell. Due to a misunderstanding, she mistakes him for the translator Rodrigue, who plays the main role in Corneille's prestigious play "The Cid". In order to seduce her, Stefan plunges into lies that he will have to repeat throughout the festival... but which will quickly surpass him.
