Summary Dominique Marceau is in jail, charged with the murder of her lover, Gilbert Tellier.  As her trial proceeds, she calls to mind the past events that led to her present predicament.  We see her life with her parents and her sister Annie, who was Gilbert’s fiancée.  Dominique seduced Gilbert for fun and lived her own life, as a free woman with no job and seeing several men. We then see her attempt to take her own life when Gilbert decides to leave her and go back to Annie.  Her lawyer is prepared to try anything to save Dominique but the rules of society are against her.  The truth may not be enough to save Dominique... © Willems Henri (Brussels, Belgium) Review Write a review for this film...
