Summary
Famous cover girl Sophie dreams of another life than the one she
currently has with high class reporter Philippe. Her liking for
Philippe soon turns to hate when she discovers that he has fallen for a
rich American girl, Barbara. Sophie is so jealous that she wants
to kill them both in a crime of passion. Determined to carry
through her vengeful scheme, she follows the instructions of Alain, a
friend, who tells her to make Philippe jealous of her. When
Philippe and Barbara leave for the winter sports, Sophie follows them
but soon realises that Philippe has long forgotten about her and, in
any case, she likes Alain much better...
