In simple terms: It is a poster of a very French looking man (who might be belgian actually) wearing modern clothes running away from an army of spear carrying warriors, pulling a face that can only be described as "pained". He is also carrying a cafetiere.
In actual fact this is probably the greatest film poster of all time, at once totally shit and utterly brilliant. My french is so bad that I could probably start a limited nuclear exchange just by mis-ordering some wine - yet I was fairly prepared to go and watch this en francais without any more info at all.
Also even when you are cold and wet in Paris, unsure as to exactly where your hotel has run off to, catching a glimpse of this poster will make even the most miserable person crack a smile, while someone else shouts "Do the face! Do the face!"
