Plot summary
Louis Aubinard lives in a small Paris apartment with his sister Elizabeth and earns his living photographing religious subjects. His employer Norbert, a curator of religious articles, cancels a planned series on John the Baptist and commissions portraits of Jesus; Louis, already short of cash, needs a model or he loses the work. Zalman, a friend who has the flu, asks Louis to cover a dubbing job for him. The work is voicing pornographic films, and there Louis meets Sybil, introducing himself as Zalman. Sybil talks about her last lover, the Pianist, a restaurant musician jailed for attacking a Violinist in a jealous rage. Louis gives her the money for a suit for the Pianist and agrees to join her at the prison gates.
