Synopsis
Having lived a sheltered childhood, in which his sole companion was his tutor Camille, Benjamin reaches adolescence with no knowledge of the outside world or the sins and passions that afflict mortal men.  Aged 17, he goes to live with his aunt and uncle, libertine aristocrats who inhabit a grand château and who have known nothing of his austere life.  Here, Benjamin discovers a whole new world, and he finds no shortage of pretty young women who are willing to indoctrinate him into the delights of adulthood...
