Synopsis:

The new film from veteran director Otar Iosseliani is an accomplished and brilliantly entertaining absurdist comedy that has been compared to the films of the great Jacques Tati. When he loses his position as a powerful government minister, Vincent is dropped by his pretty mistress and must begin life anew, without the privileges of power. As he gradually becomes acquainted with milieus which he'd either forgotten or never known and a host of sometimes eccentric, often remarkable everyday people, Vincent really begins to start living again.

A French government minister named Vincent (Severin Blanchet) resigns from his official duties to experience a loose life of drink, women and good times in this satirical comedy from writer/director Otar Losseliani.

Vincent is a secretary of state, a very powerful man Minister: a sumptuous office, secretaries, a chauffeur-driven limousine and bodyguards, a very beautiful mistress Odile who passes her days spending his money.
