Starting as the somewhat queasy story of the young LuIu's affair with the manipuIative Pablo (Oscar Ladoire), the movie takes a much darker turn once they are wed. It is conventional cinematic wisdom that there's no such thing as sex after marriage, but here LuIu's husband incomprehensibly leads her into bIindfoIded reIationships with others, then is heartbroken when she reacts with disgust.
