A meek, mild-mannered man begins to suspect that his beautiful wife is poisoning him after he realizes that his acute stomach aches occur only after he eats at home. As a result, he investigates the death of his predecessor-- his wife's first husband.
Cheating Notes
Etienne is Louise's second husband. We learn that she cheated on her first husband with him. In a flashback scene, she and Etienne have sex in a hotel room while she was still with her first husband (16:11).
Louise, in her lingerie, seduces Etienne, and they have implied sex (17:41).
After watching their maid Rose and her boyfriend make out inside a cinema, Louise and Etienne have sex in the bedroom (33:30).
Etienne makes a move on Rose, who is also interested in him. They make out and have a petting session in the kitchen (43:34), but he stops himself from making love to her completely because of his love for Louise.
Etienne follows Louise and sees her enter a hotel. While he sits on a bench in front of the hotel, he recalls another lovemaking session with Louise when she was still married to her first husband (1:14:30). Immediately after, we see a sex scene in the hotel between what could possibly be Louise and her lover (their faces are not shown). We see Louise's nipples in both these scenes.
Etienne sees Louise and her young lover cautiously come out of the hotel and kiss as she is about to step into a taxi.
Louise, in her lingerie, seduces Etienne again but this time, he doesn't give in (1:25:04).
Summary
A heart-wrenching story of infidelity, but ultimately, Etienne couldn't complain much about what happened to him because he had done the same thing to Louise's first husband.
