In 1958 the Merlin law made brothels illegal in Italy. Adua, Lolita, Marilina and Millie are four prostitutes whose brothel in Rome is shut down. Under Adua's leadership, they pool their savings, 500,000 lire apiece, to open a restaurant on the outskirts of Rome. They buy a run-down building, and hire workmen to fix it up, but when they apply to open the restaurant, their permit is rejected because of their history of prostitution. One of Adua's former customers, Ercoli, agrees to buy the building, use his connections, and get the permit in his name, but he expects them to run the restaurant as a front and work as a brothel on the upper floors, in return for a rent of 1 million lire a month.

Jeanne Kern enseigne l'histoire dans un cours privé mixte. Volontiers provocante, elle n'ignore pas l'effet qu'elle produit sur les hommes. Les lycéens, surtout mademoiselle Zanon qui vient d'arriver dans l'établissement, les collègues et même le directeur, Bruno Ketti, sont sous le charme. Ce dernier éprouve même pour la jeune femme une passion déraisonnée. Un jour, une lettre anonyme, dénonçant les mœurs lesbiennes de Jeanne, parvient sur le bureau de Ketti. Les missives se succèdent, bientôt suivies de photos compromettantes de parties fines, adressées au directeur, aux enseignants et aux parents d'élèves. Sur les clichés, le visage de l'une des jeunes femmes nues a été découpé, et tout laisse penser que l'inconnue n'est autre que Jeanne. Celle-ci se trouve alors au centre de toutes les attentions et doit affronter le scandale. Dans une situation inconfortable, entre les rapprochements insistants de Ketti, les railleries des élèves et les plaintes des parents, elle gagne la sympathie du professeur de mathématiques, Laurent.

Belgium in the 1950s. Jeanine Deckers dreams of becoming a singer and of going to Africa as a missionary. Against her family's wishes, she joins a convent. However, the strict rules become too much for her. She rebels, especially when her guitar is taken from her and when she hears that she'll have to wait several years before being sent to Africa for missionary work. Despite being punished, she is eventually given back her guitar so she can entertain young people visiting the monastery. One day she is filmed by Belgian television while singing and playing music to a group of youngsters. This launches her career as a commercially successful artist, yet everything she earns is sent to the monastery and the head nuns keep her identity secret from the general public, while keeping her success secret from Deckers herself.
