Film Synopsis
Mortal no longer loves his wife Nadia and is keen to divorce her. To
provide reasonable grounds for divorce, he engages the services of a private
detective, Robert, to seduce his wife. Things do not turn out as Mortal
had hoped. First, Robert and Nadia fall madly in love as soon as they
meet. Then, with the help of a crafty little boy named Toto, Robert
manages to unmask Mortal as a jewel thief. The reward that Robert gets
from the insurance company for exposing Mortal more than compensates for
the loss of his fee and he can look forward to a comfortable new life with
his one true love, Nadia.
