She wonders what to do with her innate talent, until she meets Agnes, a rich Parisian lady who helps her reach a prestigious school. Without hesitation, Alice leaves everything behind to start a new life alone in Paris. There, she meets Antoine, the son of Agnes, and they soon fall passionately in love. Antoine finds in Alice a sincerity and a simplicity that free him from the "bourgeois" environment he hates, while Alice enters a fascinating world: "the high society"... with the risk of losing herself in it.
