Initially a maker of documentaries marked by surrealism, Jacques Baratier invents a fantastic, eccentric science-fiction tale set in a South American dictatorship, based on a script by Jacques Audiberti. He entrusts the title role to Sonne Teal, perhaps the first female impersonator to star in a film.
