This three-part film begins with a young woman married to an older, cold-hearted man in the year 1200 AD. Two rivals have a sword fight over the affections of the lonely woman. Part two takes place in 1910 and finds an amorously unfaithful wife taking on her many lovers while her unsuspecting husband lurks nearby. The final part finds a count and countess engaging in extramarital affairs in France during the 1840s. The count seduces the chambermaid while the countess sleeps with a virile young poet.
