Synopsis
Antoine Fournier is a teacher in a college, a kind man who spends his free timing raising funds for a good cause.  One day, Rémy Bellanger, one of his students, is caught by Fournier whilst stealing money in his office.  Fournier doesn’t want a scandal and is ready to forget all about it.  But Rémy has a vicious mind and wants to take revenge on Fournier.  To that end, he asks his girlfriend, Gisèle Delmar, to state that he tried to rape her.  To save the college’s reputation, Fournier has no choice but to resign.  Some years later, Fournier is "the man with the golden keys" at the reception desk of an upmarket hotel.   He is surprised when Rémy and Gisèle check into the hotel.  Both are wealthy and married – he to a woman who keeps a close eye on her money, she to an older man.  One thing hasn’t changed, however – they are still lovers...
