What happens

Fétiche ou Fétiche mascotte (aussi connu par son titre en anglais, The Mascot) est un film français réalisé par Ladislas Starewitch et Irène Starewitch, sorti en 1933. C'est le premier épisode d'une série. Le film originel comportait 1 000 mètres (soit 38 minutes) mais les distributeurs, comme Cinédis en France, ont réduit son montage à 600 mètres, ce qui est devenu le film finalement distribué.
