Synopsis:
Ducoboo, 11, an incorrigible dunce, has just been expelled from yet another school. His father enrols him at the Saint-Potache school, warning him that if he doesn’t improve his grades, the next stop will be a boarding school. With this threat hovering over his head and despite a formidable opponent in his teacher, Mr Latouche, Ducoboo displays boundless ingenuity in cheating and copying from his neighbour, Léonie, top of the class. Ducoboo is a family comedy embracing the values of friendship, creativity and the right to be different.
