Ricco has a restaurant in crisis, a marriage in crisis, a daughter in crisis, and a friend called Momo. Not bad. Especially when they inform him he's received an inheritance from a distant relative on the Cote d'Azure. Ricco just has time to pull a swift one on Momo and set him at the helm of his family ''fortune'': a modest funeral parlour, deeply in debt, dedicated to organizing a fitting departure for the dead of the underprivileged classes. Not at all intimidated by the surprise, Ricco commences the paperwork for the sale of the business to the competition, a subsidiary of a large American firm by the name of Universal Undertakers, but a clause in the will puts a stop to everything at the last moment. In order to claim the inheritance, Ricco must agree to act as gravedigger for a year and keep the family business going... in competition with the ruthless monopoly of Universal Undertakers who have annihilated every funeral parlour in the area.
