本片取自狄德罗小说中的一个片断，讲一个上流社会女子被情人抛弃后，想出一招：她鼓励对方跟一名有卖淫背景的女子结合，先实行广泛的保密工作，事成后再把这则天塌地裂的消息公诸于众。

A young mute woman, living in a small village, is expecting a baby. Her husband is at the same time writing a novel and using the villagers as his characters. In the creative process, reality and imagination are constantly intertwined.
