Micheline

Micheline

Micheline, a lonely woman, seeks to inject a touch of whimsy into her monotonous life. Her journey leads her to a joke shop, where she meets Richard, a salesman as charming as he is manipulative. Between a magic ball and whoopee cushions, Micheline gets carried away by her dreams of adventure and romance. But behind the laughter and hopes lies a bitter truth.
