Auguste est un écrivain de théâtre qui éprouve de sérieuses difficultés à finir d'écrire sa dernière pièce. Il est torturé par le divorce de sa femme Harriet, une actrice, qui doit interpréter le rôle principal. Il l'invite donc dans leur ancienne maison à la campagne, avec Théo son partenaire, pour faire des répétitions et tenter de trouver l'énergie nécessaire au bouclage du texte. Immédiatement, il ressent dans sa chair qu'Harriet a une liaison avec Théo et tente de la reconquérir, chose à laquelle Harriet répond par la proposition de la libre union, à 3 ou à 4, en tentant d'impliquer Fanny, la très jeune secrétaire d'Auguste. Les jeux de séduction/répulsion s'installent entre les membres du quatuor dans toute la complexité des rapports de force entre domination et soumission, où chacun avec ses blessures et ses désirs tente de tempérer ses pulsions, ses manques, et sa douleur.

Nancy, dans les années 1980. Gloria (Soko) est une ado rebelle dans une famille très stricte. Alors qu'elle se fait donner des leçons par ses parents (Nadège Prugnard et Fantazio), elle pique une crise de nerfs et elle est internée à l'hôpital psychiatrique Jeanne d'Arc de Dommartin-lès-Toul. Le psychiatre (Jean-Yves Ruf) lui reproche sa façon de s'enlaidir avec son look punk, sa façon de « se mettre en danger » et lui pose des questions intimes sur sa sexualité, auxquelles Gloria refuse de répondre. Gloria a du mal à supporter sa privation de liberté, mais sa rencontre avec Frances (Clara Ponsot), prétendument internée pour amnésie, lui donne plus de courage. Frances, très sûre d'elle et apparemment contente d'être là, commence à flirter avec elle. À sa sortie, Frances envoie plusieurs lettres d'amour enflammées à Gloria, alors que cette dernière ne lui envoie qu'une seule lettre de rupture. Quand Gloria sort finalement de l'hôpital, elle réintègre sa bande de punks et revoit Frances qui fait partie de la bande adverse de skins. Les deux tombent pourtant amoureuses l'une de l'autre et Frances suit la bande de Gloria pour quelque temps, même si elle ne s'y sent pas à l'aise. Frances finit par la quitter et Gloria part zoner seule dans la ville par dépit.

Veronica Franco (Catherine McCormack) is an adventurous, curious, slightly tomboyish young woman in Venice. Her lover Marco (Rufus Sewell) cannot marry her because her family is not wealthy enough to provide a good dowry. Marco, a future Senator, marries a foreign noblewoman instead. Veronica's mother (Jacqueline Bisset) must think of the future and her family's financial security, as she still requires dowries for her younger daughters and money for her son's commission. Rather than go to a convent, Veronica's mother suggests she become a courtesan, a highly paid, cultured prostitute like her mother and grandmother before her. At first Veronica is repelled by the idea, but once she discovers that courtesans are allowed access to libraries and education, she tentatively embraces the idea.
