Уже далеко не молодой владелец небольшого заводика в провинции по имени Бенуа вынужден под напором конкуренции продаться американцам в лице фирмы, возглавляемой героем Лондаля. Бенуа старомоден во всем, рабочие «ездят» на нем как хотят, он же сколотил из них регбийную команду и носится по полю что есть силы. По сути завод является частью его семьи. Но времена уже давно не те. И он едет в Париж на встречу с американцами. А там знакомится с весьма импозантной дамой Кристин и даже проводит с ней ночь. Влюбившись по уши на старости лет, он на радостях подмахивает невыгодный контракт словно в дурмане. Позже оказывается, что Кристин — элитная проститутка, специально нанятая американцами. Для Бенуа это было шоком, но эта встреча для них обоих оказалась не последней.
