At the end of 1871, in a luxury Parisian brothel, Le Paradis, three women try to escape the servitude imposed by men. The very young Rose arrives in Paris in search of her mother, a former prostitute; she is trapped by a procurer and forcibly recruited into the Paradise. Véra is 35 years old; she knows that the end of her career as a prostitute is near and she bets everything on the Baron du Plessis, her main client, who is the only one able to redeem her debt. Hortense, the owner of Le Paradis, has to hold on to her daughters and resist the pressure of a thug from the suburbs who wants money.
