Overview
A ringmaster, his son Max, and a monkey named Johnny are trying hard to make the business bring in money, but it does not work. In the south of France they will meet the neat Natascha. One day when Johnny almost exposes Natasha's breasts, the director comes up with an idea: a whole new form of striptease. Success returns, but Max becomes more and more jealous of the primate.
