François, a photographer, meets Carole, an actress married to a French director who spends all his time in Hollywood. At their first meeting, they become lovers. But Carole quickly shows signs of mental imbalance, and is institutionalized at a psychiatric hospital. Though he’s still in love with her, François keeps his distance.

He even goes so far as to ask her to marry him. It’s just then that Carole’s ghost first appears in his apartment…
