Nathalie, a bureaucrat, is married to Robert, a chief accountant, with whom she has a four-year-old daughter, Mireille. Although financially comfortable, the couple is not happy. Robert suffers from sexual impotence, a subject he refuses to discuss because of his pride. When Nathalie tells him she’s told her mother, who wants to meet them, Robert feels a deep shame that turns into anger and frustration. He starts beating her again, despite promising to stop. Nathalie, wounded, has no intention of standing idly by.
