Desperate to protect his job from a bureaucratic rival, the head of the French secret service picks outs a stranger, François Perrin, from a Paris crowd and singles him out as a master spy who should be tracked very closely. In reality, François is an amiable, if clumsy, classical violinist whose complete obliviousness to the agents watching him only further convinces them that they have a major undercover operative in their sights.
