Synopsis
editIt's hard to make a good movie. Laurent Baffie understands this and takes Daniel Russo on a quirky adventure in search of the car keys he lost. In reality, his keys are in his left pocket, but all of this is just an allegory of life, friendship, and adventure. An adventure in which Baffie plays himself, while at the same time directing, screenwriting, and producing.
