Film Synopsis
A flashy forty-something, Dodo has no difficulty attracting the ladies. But all he wants is the quiet life, lazing in the sun or strolling in a carefree state of mind in the Florida sea town where he lives with his American wife. Tired of the constraints of married life, he leaves his wife and lives quite contentedly off the spouses of others. He is a natural parasite. One day, he strikes up a friendship with a gypsy violinist, Jésus, who settled in the area after a lucky inheritance. A dramatic incident compels Dodo to seek American citizenship, but how can he become a real American when all he wants to do is laze around all day?© James Travers
