Description: Two ex-jailbirds, one working on the production line of the other's gramophone factory, finally abandon their soulless existence to live as joyous vagabonds. Considered one of the most lyrical products of the French cinema, the film is a surreal and satirical attack on automation and French economic ideas of the time. It inspired Charlie Chaplin in the making of Modern Times.
