Synopsis
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 café where he meets a solitary woman and her young 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...
