aka: Mr. Average

Film Synopsis

After his triumph in a TV game show, Jalil unwittingly becomes the focus of attention for an important opinion poll organisation.  Didier and Françoise, who run this company, have no scruples over equipping Jalil's apartment with numerous hidden cameras and fixing him up with a bogus girlfriend.  In their opinion, the nation has the right to know exactly what Jalil, a typical French man, thinks, what his tastes are, and how he spends his free time.  Even the President of France is interested in Jalil.  If he does represent the average man, then knowing everything about him is clearly an electoral asset...
