Released from prison one Christmas evening, Robert Herbin tries to
contact his mother, only to find that she died whilst he was in
jail. Alone and uncertain where to go, Robert enters a

daughter. The woman, Marthe, pleases Robert and, out of kindness,
he escorts her and her child back to her apartment. Marthe tells
Robert that her husband is away on business but she resists his
attempts to seduce her. Later, Marthe changes her mind and
invites the stranger back to her apartment. On his return, Robert
is surprised to find the dead body of Marthe’s husband...
