After returning from war, Marceau Le Guern reflects on a bleak past. Raised in a Dominican orphanage, he fell into destitution, his only asset being his striking looks. Madame Alice, a shady exploiter, forces him to pose for pornographic photos for lonely elderly women and once hired him as a gigolo. Seeking a fresh start, Marceau falls for the pure‑hearted Dominique, but Alice refuses to let him leave her world.
