Fabrice is the biggest Johnny Hallyday fan in the world. But one day he wakes up in a subtly different reality... a world where his music idol doesn’t exist! So Fabrice sets out to discover what happened to Jean-Philippe Smet, the man known as Johnny Hallyday. He’s shocked to find that Jean-Philippe is just an ordinary average joe running a bowling alley.
