Synopsis
In 1980, Coluche is one of the most popular comic performers in France.  He attracts the size of audience other comedians can only dream of, be it on stage, on television or on the radio.  Often, his distinctive comedy has an acute political slant – he lampoons politicians and the inability of France to resolve its social problems.  One day, a friend of his suggests that he should go into politics.  Coluche accepts the challenge readily and, to the astonishment of everyone, he puts himself forward as a candidate in the up and coming French presidential elections.  Even he is surprised at the level of support he receives from ordinary French people.  He might even end up winning!  Now wouldn’t that be a lark...?
