Distressed by this revelation, he starts frequenting the "clubs" of Pigalle where eroticism and lust reign. So when Veronique, bores of their shared life, announces to him that she wants to leave him, Marc, obsessed by the burning souvenir of his lovemaking with Nicole, decides to take the young woman streetwalker and start an ongoing affair. But that doesn't take into account, Nicole's "protector", who won't have any of it.
