If I had had the good fortune to be the keeper of the Jardin des Plantes for a day, I would have wanted to take my visitor wherever I wanted, wherever everything moves along like in a song or a poem. Without any educational agenda, without scientific respectability. In an invitation to drift, to hypothetical encounters, to reconciliations of universes, in words and sounds, wind and dreams. To watch, listen, and discover the magic of the world. Nothing would be serious, but everything would be important.

Clumsy Monsieur Hulot finds himself perplexed by the intimidating complexity of a gadget-filled Paris. He attempts to meet with a business contact but soon becomes lost. His roundabout journey parallels that of an American tourist, and as they weave through the inventive urban environment, they intermittently meet, developing an interest in one another. They eventually get together at a chaotic restaurant, along with several other quirky characters.
