An aristocratic family, who are the proud possessors of a ruin of a chateau and a long history but little else, face a tax demand for two million euros. They will do anything, other than work, to retain their status, pride and chateau.
Marie-Stéphanie Montcougnet (Hélène de Fougerolles) is a visiting member of this family of chinless wonders.
Nana Chiabaut was the key makeup artist; Pierre Olivier Persin was the special makeup effects artist and made small ear devices for Hélène de Fougerolles to create Marie-Stéphanie Montcougnet’s sticky-out ears (and for the four children).
