Film Synopsis
From 1697 to 1938, from the Place de l'Étoile to the Place de la
Concorde, from Louis XV to the King of England, the history of the
Champs-Élysées, the finest avenue in the world, is
related by a teacher to his pupils. The teacher claims that his
great-grandfather was the son of Louis XV and an unknown beauty.
Since there is no evidence to the contrary, the teacher sees no reason
why he should keep this fact a secret...
