- A young woman separated from her lover by war faces a life-altering decision.
- A pimp with no other means to provide for himself finds his life spiraling out of control when his prostitute is sent to prison.
- A man has everything: dozens of servants, a palace, vast woods, gardens, a lake, mechanical toys, private entertainment troupes of musicians and dancers. He has it all - but love. When alone, he sits at a desk, sighing, and looking at a photograph of a pretty girl. One day, the circus descended onto his palace, and amidst all the fun it brought, he recognized the Amazon on the white horse - the girl in the photograph. The girl is now the mother of a small boy, Yo-Yo, whom she considers that looks like the millionaire, even under a clown's make-up. The boy will spend some time in the palace, in awe of so much riches, but he will leave (in a dream-like scene) on the tusks of the elephant. Time passes - and one day Yo-Yo will be the owner of his father's palace in decay. Starting from scratch, he will rebuilt it, and be praised as a great clown, an artist, a film-maker, a millionaire. Yet, something is amiss...
- A Parisian café owner believes her long lost husband has returned but the man suffers from amnesia.
- Gerard, a young man from a "good family," dreams of becoming an actor. To do this, he follows everywhere his sister Frédérique who is infatuated with cinéma vérité.
- Hélène, who has just broken up with Raoul, a dentist, lets herself be seduced (though not without great resistance) by the obstinate Serge. Raoul, a modern Don Juan, now focuses on charming Sophie, a pretty patient of his, but is beaten on the finish line by... the young woman's ex-husband. On the prowl again, Raoul, usually an experienced lover, makes the first flop of his career with Mathilde, too beautiful and too quick-witted a creature for him...
- A scientist develops a serum that can eradicate scar tissue. He tries it on a girl with a horribly disfigured face. It succeeds, but then he discovers the girl is an escaped mental patient from a local asylum.
- Michel Ferréol reluctantly meets up with an old school friend, Antoine Fiesco. Michel didn't like Antoine much when they were at school and tries to get away by making an excuse. He changes his mind when Antoine introduces him to his wife, a beautiful brunette named Christine.
- I have found more on the plot of The Sand Castle, Jerome Hill's 1961 classic that has disappeared. First, an online plot summary (below). Notice, it is 67 minutes long. Then a review in a mag (found online) that gives cast and characters. Third, the only pic I found of the boy (and his sister , who co-stars with him). I will send those two items as pics attached. The 1961 Horizon magazine article I got this information from has a beautfiul picture of the boy, back to the camera, defiantly staring at his handiwork and the waves edging closer. It's real life to him. Synopsis by Hal Erickson Sand Castle is an intimate and totally engaging yarn about an afternoon at the seashore. Two very young children, played by James and Laurie Cardwell, are left to their own devices by their neglectful parents. They construct a sand castle, then utilize their imaginations to "inhabit" their new fortress. As the afternoon creeps onward, the children have populated their sand castle with a host of colorful imaginary characters. Sand Castle is a marvelous, nostalgic way to spend 67 minutes on a lazy afternoon.
