After Monsieur Hulot's Parrot (2006) and Hello, Monsieur Hulot (2010), David Merveille pays fresh tribute to Jacques Tati's character, imagining an encounter between Monsieur Hulot and a small boy on the beach at Saint-Marc-sur-Mer, where Jacques Tati filmed Monsieur Hulot's Holiday.
Hulot's mischievous accomplice, the boy keeps the story moving forward in a series of gags suffused with Tati's familiar comic, poetic wit.
