Julien is a young author whose dream is to be published. Thanks to a subterfuge, he manages to get an appointment with a fearsome publisher, Judith Zahn. She doesn't think Julien is talented but nevertheless finds him to her taste. He lets her seduce him and becomes her lover. One night, out of curiosity, he looks through her belongings. He discovers a fascinating story; the story of Judith's father who used to be a philosopher in the 1970's and died fighting with the guerrilla in Latin America. Julien decides to write a book about it but without telling Judith. When Julien shows her his manuscript, Judith feels robbed and betrayed. She forbids him to publish it and breaks up with him. Julien ignores her and has his book published. Judith feels humiliated and uses a trick to bring him down. She succeeds but does not savour her revenge as she hoped to. (Pyramide Distribution)
