Synopsis
At their chateau dilettante Fabian, mistress Eugènie, and niece Annette, host a succession of lovers, including Arabella and the wealthy Leuwenstam, who have not yet consummated their marriage, and the estranged aristocrats, Manuel and Felizitas. Inspired by the reading of Balzac, the party plans an orgiastic grape festival. During the orgy Sophie, the maid, sequesters Annette and Manuel. Surprised by Fabian, the aristocrat requests his niece's hand. Under cover of blackness Sophie pairs Leuwenstam and Felizitas, whom he mistakes for his wife. Discovering his error, Leuwenstam consents to a divorce, then proposes marriage to the willing Felizitas. Following suit, Fabian weds Eugènie.
