Benoît Castejac is the owner of a small factory in Toulouse that
has run into financial difficulty. He realises that he has no
choice but to agree to a merger with an American corporation,
Fielding. Invited to Paris for a business lunch, Benoît
meets Fielding’s public relations man, Levêque, who introduces
him to his neice, Christine, a call girl. Succumbing to the
latter’s influence, Benoît signs an agreement with Fielding’s
owner, Morrisson. On his return home, Benoît receives some
bad news. Fielding’s engineering consultant, Delorme, has found
out that Castejac accounts are in the red and that union leader Bastide
is about to launch a strike. Desperate, Benoît returns to
Paris but fails to improve matters with Morrisson. He turns to
Christine for help, but finds no solace in that quarter either.
Humiliated, he heads back home, knowing that he will have to close down
the factory that he inherited from his father...
