Synopsis
Stanislas Hessler, the manager
of a gallery of modern art, gets his kicks by taking lurid pornographic
photographs of women. One day, his secret is discovered by
Josée, the wife of Gilbert, a man who became well-known through
Stanislas. Initially curious, Josée decides to
witness one of Stanislas’s picture-taking sessions. Later, she is
so attracted to Stanislas that she becomes one of his
models. The tender and loving relationship that then
develops between these two people is threatened since Stanislas is an
impotent masochist. When her husband goes away to
Düsseldorf, Josée decides to join Stanislas at his hideout
in Brittany. Here, she becomes his mistress, unaware of the
traumas that lie ahead...
