Le petit garçon de l'ascenseur

Jules, a fourteen year old orphan, becomes an elevator boy in a grand hotel in Monaco. He is fascinated by the lavish existence he only sees from the outside. He wins a contest; the prize is a weekend in a royal suite at the hotel. He invites Mireille, the lobby florist, to join him in hopes of seducing her but she is not impressed. Disenchanted, he goes back to his elevator job where his competence is noticed by a powerful businessman.
