Plot

Marco is a driving instructor who is engaged to single mother Irène, a hairdresser. After eating a chicken dinner, he complains to his housekeeper that she cooks chicken too frequently. He begins to feel bloated and tired and sees a doctor. The doctor determines that he is pregnant, and an expert concludes that the hormones in chicken have made him sufficiently feminine to carry a child. With his permission, the doctors publicize this event, and he becomes a model for a maternity clothing company creating a new line of paternity clothes. The majority of the film covers Marco revealing his pregnancy to his friends and family including his ex-wife and their reactions prior to going public with it.

The movie has two different endings. In the original French version, Marco is diagnosed with having hysterical pregnancy; saddening both him and Irène. As they finally get married Irène begins to feel sick and reveals to Marco that she is pregnant. In the Italian ending, Marco realizes that he was misdiagnosed and suddenly goes into labor at his wedding, though the baby is not shown. Afterwards, men everywhere suddenly begin having pregnancy symptoms.
