At the center of this remarkable tour de France is the enigmatic Dr. Fischer millionaire, student of human nature, practical joker and party-goer. His parties are famous- or perhaps notorious... for they are part of his experiment to see just how far even (or especially) the very, very rich will go to satisfy their greed. A Grand Guignol entertainment observed by Dr. Fisher's son-in-law who discovers at the last moment that Dr. Fischer's guests risk not only humiliation at his hand, but death.
