Annie (Erika Cool) is married to Jacques and together they run a dress shop with the assistance of Justine (Martine Grimaud). Annie spends much of the time looking forlorn as she watches her husband chat up the female customers and she daydreams of better times with him, having romantic sex in various places. Jacques has an affair with customer Martine and also with the shop assistant. He tries to persuade his wife to join him in his swinging lifestyle and takes her to a swingers' club run by Jocelyne Clairis. But Annie won't join in until after Jacques gets his friend Paul to seduce her in the dress shop. Then they visit the club again and take part in an orgy with the owner, Pierre (André Miller), Martine (Elisabeth Buré) and Nathalie (Maryline Guillaume).

Marie, who works as a successful door-to-door encyclopedia salesperson, has been married to her husband Francois for 12 years and has a two-year-old son. Though she is relatively content with her life, she feels something is wanting. Enter 50-year old African-American Bill. Initially she is annoyed by his insouciance, but she finds that she is irresistibly attracted to him. Soon the two are in the midst of sordid illicit affair. She knows little about her new lover, and he seems uninterested in learning about her, but the long sessions of lovemaking are something else entirely. Feeling out of control, Marie is increasingly repelled by her own actions. Psychologically, she struggles to reconcile her torrid encounters with Bill and mundane domestic chores such as bathing her son. Moreover, she finds herself incapable of hiding her adulterous behavior, rather she comes home with scratches and hickeys all over her body, to the devastation Francois.
