On the eve of his wedding, on holiday on the Lake Annecy shore, career diplomat Jérôme visits an old acquaintance, perhaps a former girlfriend. Through her, he meets an intense teenager, Laura, and then lusts after her sister, Claire. Whilst Laura attempts to flirt with him, Jérôme's fantasy becomes focused on wanting to caress Claire's knee.
