Catherine et Marcello forment un couple uni. Leur fille, Camille, âgée de neuf mois, représente pour eux l'axe autour duquel tourne le monde. Catherine et Marcello s'avouent heureux et ne voient pas plus loin que le bout de leur bonheur. Mais un jour, ce qui n'arrive qu'aux autres s'abat sur eux : la petite Camille meurt. Catherine et Marcello refusent d'accepter ce coup du sort : ils rompent avec leur vie passée, leurs amis, leurs proches et s'enferment dans leur appartement. Là, ils vivent repliés sur eux-mêmes, traversant des périodes d'incompréhension. Marcello abandonne son métier ; Catherine, lorsqu'elle sort, passe ses journées à vanter les mérites de sa fille aux mères de famille qui promènent leurs enfants dans des parcs… Et puis un soir, las de ce décor qui ne change jamais, Catherine et Marcello décident de partir loin, à l'aventure. Dans un village où ils s'arrêtent, ils croisent une noce. Peu à peu, la vie reprend ses droits : Catherine et Marcello boivent, dansent, rient. Leur gaieté, d'abord factice, devient plus réelle. Mais au petit matin, le souvenir de Camille resurgit sous la forme d'une vieille photo oubliée.

Wasting no time, he and his family arrange a quick divorce settlement, ousting her from home and keeping her away from the two children the couple have. One night she ends up in a restaurant called Le Trou (The Hole), where she meets Laure (Stéphane Audran), an older woman, an alcoholic herself.

Betty receives care and friendship from Laure, who's in a relationship with Mario (Jean-Francois Garreaud), the restaurant's owner. The envy toward Laure for Mario grows each day and will drive Betty to artfully contrive the means to conquer her new friend's lover.
