France, World War II. In order to somehow make ends meet, the mother of two children, Marie Latour, does underground abortions and rents a room to a familiar prostitute. She doesn't pay any attention to her husband, who returned from the war because of his injury, and lives her own life. Abortions gradually begin to bring a good income, and boredom can be easily dispelled by starting up with a young lover.
Directed by Claude Chabrol. Starring Isabelle Huppert, François Cluzet, Nils Tavernier, Marie Trintignant and Guillaume Foutrier.
