Francoise is naive girl from the provinces whose dreams are very much influenced by frequent reading of magazines. When she meets Albert, a young parisian, she is so sure that he is her Prince Charming that she convinces him to take her back to Paris with him. Ten years later, she becomes the subject of a ‘tabloid’-style TV program to which Albert is invited.
