His roundabout journey parallels that of an American tourist, and as they weave through the inventive urban environment, they intermittently meet, developing an interest in one another. They eventually get together at a chaotic restaurant, along with several other quirky characters.

Tati saw the world 50 years ahead of his time and he commented on it. Sonically and visually, each little detail in every single frame of this massive-scale film is obsessive and elegantly clever. Only Tati’s unique timing and blocking could have made something so precise and controlled extremely funny.
