Por no faltar a una cita importante, roba un vehículo y es perseguido por una banda de ladrones de coches. Entabla amistad con Jean-la-Cravate (Raymond Galle), miembro de la banda, y acaba por convertirse en uno de sus cabecillas. Se enamora de Jeannette (Danielle Darrieux), hermana y cómplice de Jean. Pero su deseo de dejar la organización pondrá a ambos en peligro... Rodada en Francia y en francés, "Curvas peligrosas" (Mauvaise Graine) es el primer largometraje de Billy Wilder.
