Piédalu, a naive man from the countryside, travels to Paris in order to try and meet the Minister of National Renovation to submit plans for a new tax system to him. Instead he ends up in a music hall amidst a series of misunderstandings and has to return home without even seeing the government official. Fortuitously the minister has a car breakdown near Piédalu's village and he is at last able to meet him.
