Narcisse (film)

Narcisse is a 1940 French comedy film directed by Ayres d'Aguiar and starring Rellys, Paul Azaïs and Monique Rolland.

It was produced during the Phoney War period and was released in March 1940, a few weeks before the beginning of the Battle of France.

Narcisse Pigeon hopes to join the French Air Force, but fails the selection board.

One day, at a friend's house, he tries on his uniform and discovering an overlooked urgent message in the pocket, he goes to deliver it to the base.

He then accidentally ends up flying a new prototype plane, inadvertently performing a series of acrobatic manoeuvres in the air, before somehow managing to land it again.
