A trite story in which Vidal, a husky Tarzan type, hunts snakes for a living. He is in love with a shopgirl, Arnoul. He gets into a heated argument with a cop who tries to ticket them for jaywalking and accidentally kills the policeman. Vidal becomes a hunted man, spending most of his time
hiding from the police and having liaisons with an eccentric maker of women's shoes, a prostitute, and the mistress of the newspaper reporter who sensationalized his crime. (In French; English subtitles.)
