Luc Besson created this tongue-in-cheek look at the denizens in the tunnels of the Paris Metro, all set to a thumping good soundtrack. Christopher Lambert plays a young man who steals a portfolio from the host of a cocktail party and uses it as leverage to secure a date with his wife. In the meantime he takes refuge in the labyrinth that is the Parisian Metro. She is rebellious and bored with her bourgeois life and welcomes the distraction. This underground world is populated with various characters that hinder and help the protagonist along the way. Through all of these encounters and activities, the police and others are after him for their own reasons, none of which coincide.
