Synopsis: Romantic comedy. Adele, a severely depressed young lady, is preparing to end it all by jumping into the Seine when she is joined by Gabor, a knife-thrower. When he jumps in as well, they recover in hospital then decide to team up and head for Monaco. They quickly find success as a double act since Adele is obviously reckless enough to provide a willing target for Gabor to practise on. But will love blossom along with the double act?
