Overview

Paris. Madame Chanal is having an affair with Massenay, who is also married. Complications arise when a moment of passion between the lovers is accidentally recorded on to a phonograph. In true Feydeau style, this leads to a frenzied domino effect of mistaken identities, lots of door-banging, hysterical drop-your-trousers scenes, and agonizingly mis-timed meetings, with a whole host of charmingly foolish characters.
