[ Story ]

This film by the director of Pale Flower and Assassin is the strange story of a young girl and her love affairs with two older people: a well-known married writer, and a famous lady-artist who'd had an affair with him twenty years before. Then the girl, disillusioned with both of them, turns to the writer's young son. At the end of the film she is rescued half-drowned, but there is no trace of the young man.
