- In the postwar Paris, the accompanist pianist Maurice Martineau is a jealous man from the upper class married with the ambitious singer Marguerite Chauffournier Martineau, most known by her artistic name Jenny Lamour, a woman with past from the lower classes. When the lecher but powerful Georges Brignon harasses and invites Jenny for dinner promising a role in a film, Maurice goes to the restaurant and threatens Brignon. A couple of days later, Jenny tells Maurice that she is going to visit her grandmother in another town. However, her husband finds a piece of paper hidden in the kitchen with Brignon's address. Maurice goes to the theater to have an alibi and heads to Brignon's manor during the show with the intention of killing the old man. However, he finds Brignon's house open and the man dead on the floor. When he leaves the crime scene, his car is stolen and Maurice has to walk back to the theater. Meanwhile, Jenny arrives in the house of the lesbian photographer Dora Monnier, who is an old friend of Maurice and has a crush on Jenny, and tells Dora that she has just killed Brignon. But Jenny notes that she had forgotten her fur on the couch in the living room of Brignon's house and Dora takes a cab to retrieve the stole. Inspector Antoine is assigned to investigate the case and sooner he visits Jenny, Maurice and Dora to check their alibis for that night in the beginning of his investigation.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
- Singer Jenny Lamour and pianist Maurice Martineau, a married couple, are well known among the Paris theater and nightclub set, he not only her accompanist but that for a music publisher and thus many singers. Maurice is prone to jealousy, in many respects well founded as Jenny will often use her sexuality with men to advance her career. Elderly Georges Brignon, recognized by those who know him as a proverbial dirty old man, is only the latest man with who Jenny flirts as he has promised to get her into films, she lying to Maurice about her association with him to curry that favor, while Maurice in turn has stated that he wants to kill him. Things get complicated when Brignon is found dead in what on the surface is murder, the investigation led by grizzled Inspector Antoine. Unknown to the other, both Jenny and Maurice individually perpetrate a complex web of lies and fake alibis, not as perfect as either would have wanted, to steer Antoine off their trail as having possibly even committed the murder. The web is made even more complex in that they have both solely confided to their neighbor and friend Dora Monnier, who runs a photography studio on the street level of their complex, Dora's actions, in turn, stemming from a case of unrequited love.—Huggo
