Plot
Three young women with very different values are in Paris on their own. The shy Ida, highly conscious that she is an adopted child, is starting her first job as a university librarian. The fragile Louise, daughter of a rich but crooked Swiss banker, is trying to find herself after years in a coma. The streetwise Ninon, a liar and a thief, has left her homicidal pimp to become a courier. As their stories unfold, their paths cross and the girls get involved with various people. Roland owns a set decorating business, Sarah is a night-club singer, and Lucien is a conscientious young private detective. Louise finds love with Lucien, who had been hired by her father to shadow her, and Roland may link up with Ninon. Ida is not yet ready for a man, because her first need is to find her birth mother, who may be Sarah.
