About the title
Having received a promotion, dashing gendarme Cruchot arrives in the cozy resort town of Saint-Tropez with his beautiful daughter Nicole. The good-natured but bumbling local gendarmes gladly welcome Cruchot into their ranks. But their joy is short-lived: not so good-natured, but even more foolish, Cruchot zealously throws himself into upholding the law, even when the law doesn't need his protection. With gendarme Cruchot's arrival in Saint-Tropez, the town's "peaceful" life comes to an end: hunting nudists, searching for a priceless painting stolen from a museum, catching a gang of dangerous criminals — the bumbling gendarme always finds something to do. And the frivolous Nicole needs watching closely too...
