A film combining the heady passions of unrequited adolescent love with sinister overtones of jealousy, lust and envy, all to the tune of classical symphonies from Mozart, Ravel, Bach and Chopin. Moving away from her family is a big step for the shy and inexperienced Marie (Judith Davis). Nonetheless, she embraces this exciting opportunity to fine-tune her piano skills at a prestigious music school. But Marie gets more than she bargained for upon moving in with mysterious childhood friend Emma (Isild Le Besco). Both women have changed vastly since their younger years, and what was once an intimate bond soon develops into something much more intense, and a power struggle ensues. Emma fascinates, dominates and devastates Marie, who struggles between her desire for Emma and the urge to escape. With this draining obsession having an adverse effect on her piano recitals, Marie decides to put an end to Emma's advances. But Emma won't give her up without a fight...
