The story follows 17-year-old Cécile, who spends her summer in a villa on the French Riviera with her wealthy, carefree father, Raymond, and his young mistress, Elsa. The idyllic atmosphere is disrupted when Anne, a cultured and principled woman who was a friend of Cécile’s late mother, arrives. Raymond becomes romantically involved with Anne, and their engagement threatens the carefree life Cécile has enjoyed. In an attempt to stop the wedding, Cécile manipulates events, leading to tragic consequences.
