Film Synopsis
A young woman named Michèle Isola is badly burned in a horrific
fire. After surgical intervention, Dr Doulin is hopeful that she
will recover her good looks, but she still suffers from amnesia.
After a few days' rest, Michèle feels better physically but not
mentally. Dr Doulin allows her to receive her first visit, from
her former nanny Jeanne Murneau. A week later, Michèle is
able to go home, where Jeanne will take care of her. With
Michèle keen to know about her past, Jeanne has a lot questions
to answer. She finally decides to tell Michèle that she
had a cousin, Dominique, but she died in the fire. She also had a
godmother named Raffermi, from whom she will inherit a large sum of
money on her 21st birthday. Michèle will also become the
manager of a global shoe business. From that day, Michèle
becomes worried about Jeanne's real intentions and is suspicious that
she may be hiding other things from her. In an attempt to
regain her memory, Michèle starts her own investigation, first
by visiting a Raffermi shop in town. This is only the start of a
harrowing ordeal to discover the truth...
