Summary
Françoise Noblet is a young manicurist who works at a high class
hotel in Paris. One Christmas Eve, she meets Monsieur Delormel, a
wealthy businessman who offers her an evening she will never
forget. But Françoise is more interested in a
handsome young man named Gérard who, unbeknown to her, has been
charged with delivering a Cadillac to Delormel. Gérard is
equally taken with Françoise, but is afraid that she will cease
to have any interest in him when she learns that he is no one of
importance. What is he to do when Françoise lets slip that
she is Delormel’s daughter...?
