The dawn of the 20th century: L’Apollonide, a luxurious and traditional brothel in Paris, is living its last days. In this closed world, where some men fall in love and others become viciously harmful, the women share their secrets, their fears, their joys and their pains.

After a freak accident changes his perspective on life, a Parisian filmmaker meets a stranger who brings him to a commune that's populated by free-spirited women.
