Synopsis
Une jeune femme, Emilie Benoît, tue par passion la maîtresse de son amant, Philippe Chevillard. Arnaud Marescot, un avocat cleptomane, est le témoin du meurtre qui a lieu dans le photomaton d'un grand magasin et récupère l'arme du crime, un couteau. Au lieu de dénoncer la jeune fille, il accepte de la couvrir auprès de la police parce qu'il tombe amoureux d'elle. Emilie décide alors de se servir de l'attraction qu'elle exerce sur Arnaud pour se sortir du meurtre de la jeune fille, assassiner son amant avec la complicité de sa femme, et faire accuser Arnaud à sa place. Il est arrêté par la police pour le meurtre de Philippe Chevillard.Actors

Laura, played by Fanny Valette, is a Jewish philosophy student who has put Kantian reasoning above all emotions, including love. In the film, Laura's interaction with Djamel, an Muslim coworker played by Hédi Tillette de Clermont-Tonerre, exposes how Laura struggles to live by her rationalist principles as she succumbs into her feelings for Djamel. However, as Laura admits to feeling affection for Djamel, she is upset when she learns that they cannot have a life on their own because Djamel cannot afford to confront his family. Western philosophy has also made Laura very skeptical of the teachings of the Torah, undermining her relationships with her Orthodox Jewish family. Her family consists of her mother, her sister Mathilde (Elsa Zylberstein), her devout brother in-law Ariel (Bruno Todeschini), and her young nieces and nephews.

Frédéric (Bernard Verley), a young, successful lawyer, is happily married to Hélène (Françoise Verley), an English teacher, and father to one child with another on the way. Still, something eats away at him. While going through his day, Frédéric begins to ponder the times before he was married, when he was free to be with any woman he wanted and could feel the deep satisfaction of anticipation while he chased them. At one point in the film, he has an elaborate fantasy where he possesses a magical amulet that causes all women to bow to his will (the sequence features actresses from previous "Moral Tales"). These thoughts do not distress Frédéric though, as he sees these ideas as a reflection of how true his love to his wife is.
