Film Synopsis

Zerbini has ambitions of becoming the owner of the biggest casino in the popular seaside town of Deauville, but to achieve this he must convince his rival Cervoise to sell his hotel to him.  Unfortunately, Cervoise is in no hurry to sell up, so Zerbini is forced to resort to skulduggery to achieve his aims.  He intends bribing the manager of Cervoise's hotel to drive away all of his customers.  By this ruse, the hotel is sure to go bust and the cunning Zerbini can then step in to buy it for a fraction of its real commercial value.  The plan appears to work at first but after one load of disgruntled hotel patrons have gone on their way, another load turns up to replace them, apparently attracted to the hotel by the abusive service they receive...
