Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Three women and three erotic tales. 1- Margherita: Did the great Renaissance painter Raphael Sanzio die because of the cold he took in the ruins of Rome? Or was it out of pleasure? Only one person knew the truth: Margherita Luti, the ardent and ambitious Roman daughter of a baker who, posing as a model and being the artist's lover, witnessed her last moments of life. 2 - Marcéline: At the age of 14, Marcéline has never loved anyone or anything except a big rabbit with pink ears, transparent in the sun. She called him "Souci." Who could imagine that this angelic face hid a heroine of evil? 3 - Marie: The Paris of today also has its "heroines of evil." Marie, the wife of a rich art collector, is kidnapped by a gangster. César the dog, on his own initiative and in secret, decides to find his lover and avenge her. Written by X |
