Louis Coline, a young advertising executive in Paris, gradually abandons his former life —wife, family, friends, poker games— fascinated by his new boss, Bertrand Malair, an enigmatic character about whom disturbing rumors circulate. Malair draws him in with trust and recognition, but his influence proves devouring.
