Ô mon bel inconnu

About the show

Parisian hatter Prosper Aubertin, dissatisfied with home life, places an advertisement seeking a soulmate. He chooses a reply and is angered to discover the handwriting belongs to his wife Antoinette; his daughter Marie-Anne has also answered, as has their maid Félicie. Prosper arranges meetings for them with the people they have been corresponding with, including his own wife and daughter. At a rented villa in the Basque region, owner Victor is mistaken for the mysterious correspondent. The confusion is resolved: the Aubertins reconcile, Marie-Anne accepts Claude, and Victor pairs with Félicie. Their mute friend Hilarion regains his voice.
