A ruthless lothario Michel, he becomes the target of a murder plot concocted by his long-suffering invalid wife Christina and his latest mistress, an icy teacher. Two women murder him and dump his body in a swimming pool. However Michel's corpse disappears. The simple murder plot goes haywire, prompting strange rumors of his reappearance which grow more and more substantial as the film careens wildly towards its breathless conclusion.
