Plot

The character of Max disappears in the film adaptation of the work of Simonin, but the plot of this story and the central characters of "the Dabe" and "the Cave" remain the same.

In the film by Gilles Grangier, Charles Lepicard, Mr. Lucas and Eric Masson Malvoisin want to start a business of "false mornifle". Eric thinks he has under control an outstanding engraver called Robert Mideau (aka "the Cave"), supposedly in the language of thugs, an ordinary, gullible and ignorant individual.

But the business will only becomes possible with the help of Marshal Ferdinand aka "The Dabe" a former top notch counterfeiter. Retired in the tropics after his last and failed counterfeit case, he receives a visit from Charles, who offered him one last time anthology counterfeit on the Florin currency. The Dabe agrees to take the case and returned to Paris. Fine team gets to work. Under the leadership of Dabe, Robert Mideau does not show as "cave" as expected ...
