SYNOPSIS/PLOT:
When he is fired from his job as a high-powered consultant, Vincent hides the fact from his friends and family by pretending to have found a new job at the United Nations. He goes through the motions of earning his living, but instead of working in Geneva he hides away in a Swiss mountain retreat. To keep up the deceit, he turns to his father and friends to give him money, ostensibly to invest on their behalf in his new job. Little by little, his wife Muriel begins to realise that something is wrong, and Vincent’s reluctance to reveal the truth forces him into an uneasy partnership with a black marketeer...
