Pierre and his wife Anne had a good thing going together, until their son Nicolas was born. Anne traveled with him on all his long truck journeys, and they had frequent and passionate sex. For quite a few years now, Anne has stayed at home to take care of their boy, who is a sickly, weedy little fellow. Pierre is frustrated. Anne is frustrated too but has her almost incestuous feeling for her son to torment her. Even little Nicolas is frustrated, in part due to the knowledge that his father feels that the sacrifice he and his mother made in raising him hasn't been worth the effort. He too has some release in the form of a good relationship with his gigantic dog. When the seething passions of these four discontented mammals reach a crisis point, the result (in this film) is exceedingly ironic.

A transfer of personality turns a wise and ravishing young woman of twenty five years in a time-consuming depraved slut starving for men and women.

Infantryman Jean Froissard is sentenced to two years in Biribi Military Prison in North Africa. He seems to get along, but as incompetence, corruption and sadism of his superiors (which include sexual abuse of the prison inmates) force him and others into rebellion. Court martial ensues ...

His natural and innate thirsts for oddities soon make him repeat on the girl what, until then, he has been doing with the dolls. The story then evolves into a fight of wills between the mother and the girl.

The struggle between a ruthless leader of a bank robbers - Raymond Pellegrin - and the cops who are determined to put him in jail for long.

The story of the couple from the very first meeting to break up told from a view of a man, Jean-Marc. The film shares the same plot with "Françoise ou La vie conjugale", that tells the same story from another perspective.

第2次大戦末期の1944年6月、ヨーロッパにおいてナチスドイツはロシア東部戦線が膠着状態の中で、米英仏の連合軍がフランス北部に上陸するとの予測が強まり、大西洋岸に地雷や障害物などを埋めて上陸作戦に備えていた。北アフリカから戻ってきた独陸軍B軍団長ロンメル元帥は、イギリスに面した海岸線で地雷の敷設が400万個と聞いて、600万個に増やすよう檄を飛ばしていた。その時ロンメルは「あの水平線の向うに大軍がいる。今か今かと出撃を待っている。しかし一兵たりとも上陸はさせない。あの水際で撃滅させるのだ。上陸する最初の24時間が極めて重要で、その時は連合軍にとっても我々にとっても一番長い日となるだろう。」と語った…
