Description
A chance encounter in a provincial railway station sets off a chain of events that will change the life of one man forever. Two men, bearing an uncanny resemblance, meet and spend hours talking and drinking, until the Englishman falls into a drunken stupor. When he awakens, his French companion has stolen his identity and disappeared, leaving John to navigate a series of perplexing roles and identities. As he steps into the shoes of his doppelganger, John faces a world of unexpected challenges and surprises.
