In 1942, in Paris, the assistant director and member of the French resistance Jean-Devaivre joins the German studio Continental Films to be infiltrated and get a safe conduct. Through the years, he spies while making French movies produced by the Germans. Meanwhile, the wolf bourgeois screenwriter Jean Aurenche spends his shallow life with his three lovers - the artist Suzanne Raymond, the whore Olga, and Suzanne's friend and costume stylist - and trying to not collaborate with the Germans with his work.
