[2] Starring Jeanne Moreau and Claude Mann, it is Demy's second film and deals with the subject of gambling.

After accompanying his colleague Caron to a casino and winning at roulette, he decides to have a holiday on the French Riviera, despite his father's warning that gamblers always lose in the end.

In the casino in Nice, he meets Jackie Demaistre, a middle-aged woman who has left her husband and infant son to pursue her compulsion.

As her remaining belongings are in a suitcase at the railway station, where she plans to sleep, he offers her his hotel room.

Back in the casino, the two win a fortune with which, having bought a sports car and smart clothes, they take a suite in Monte Carlo and hit the tables there.
