What happens

Les malabars sont au parfum est un film français de Guy Lefranc, sorti en 1966. Des espions s'agitent autour de Michel dont la vache, Dorothée, produit, grâce à un traitement de son invention, de lait par jour. On enlève Dorothée ; elle est retrouvée. Mais tout le monde la désavoue à présent. Peu importe ! La productivité de Dorothée enrichira Michel et sa femme Nicole, qui ont ouvert une rôtisserie : la mode est aux cocktails de lait.
