What it’s about. Being a tramp is not always a disadvantage. For example when there is a masquerade ball. Indeed wearing flea-ridden rags might just mean having donned a costume. This is what happens to two resourceful Brussels bums, La Cloche and Picolard, who manage to gain entry in a fancy-dress ball. Once there, La Cloche is mistaken by an oriental prince for a respected doctor. His mission will be to give care to a music-hall diva. Even more exciting, he is asked to vaccinate a whole troupe of showgirls. Trouble guaranteed.
Who’s in it. Precious Fools stars Julien Carette as le clochard Picolard, Simone Cerdan as Irène De Cernay, France Ellys as La princesse bohémienne and Alice Tissot as L'écailleuse d'huitres.
