Nicole shares her heart between her husband, Christian, and her childhood friend, Alexandre. To silence the chatterboxes, she pushes him to marry a little provincial woman whose influence on him she does not fear. But through contact with Parisian life, the young bride blossoms and awakens Alexandre's love at the same time as Nicole's jealousy.
