Trailer Synopsis Cast

Early on in this engaging historical drama, a marquis (played by the singularly droll Jacques Nolot) offers a peddler a carriage ride on a remote country road. After sizing up his benefactor, the peddler fights motion sickness to deliver his sales pitch: “I have here a few objects of wonder, pious images, pamphlets against men of the cloth, newspapers from Amsterdam and London, holy cards, quills, writing paper…”

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I wanted to watch this historical french movie. A very tiny budget feature that interested me to see. But unfortunately, I failed in searching for a real purpose. Maybe there is not any...Very static and meaningless film, as far I can say about it. But maybe I am dumb. It takes place in France, in 1755, some time after the execution of the famous outlaw Mandrin. And his fellow friends, even those who did not know him closely, decide to ride all over the countryside to spread the songs of their late leader. Some OK action sequences, but that doesn't explain the meaning of all this. Not uninteresting, although, but I am upset to have perhaps missed something worth.Maybe a sort of politic allegory, about the struggle against the state power, the government.Maybe...
