The best - if not the brightest - French intelligence officer, Hubert Bonisseur de la Bath, returns! He may be older, but Hubert, aka OSS117, is none the wiser...

The year is now 1967 and OSS117 has been sent on a mission to Rio de Janeiro to find a former high-ranking Nazi official who went into hiding after the war. 117 is wryly amused to learn that he has been given a partner, Mossad agent Monot, who - while certainly attractive and intelligent - is also a woman!
