Stanislas Previne is a young sociologist, preparing a thesis on criminal women. His subject is Camille Bliss, a young woman serving a prison sentence for murdering one of her many lovers. Camille is also suspected of having killed her father and her mother-in-law, as well as attempting to kill her husband and her lawyer. Through a series of interviews, Camille relates the story of her life and explains how such a sweet girl like her should end up in jail. Using her fatal feminine charm, Camille finally manages to persuade Stanislas of her innocence. (official distributor synopsis)
