This marble house is the desirable mansion of a wealthy distinguished old lady who lives there alone and has no children or grandchildren. She invites to her house a little girl,with her mother's permission.Everything is fine for a while,the child discovering luxury .But we feel that something is wrong though: she spoils rotten her guest ,and little by little ,she tries to turn her away from her mom.It becomes soon some kind of abduction;the brat begins to realize when the lady wants to tell her a story "your story,it's stupid!". Gisele Casadesus,De La Comédie Française ,now 96 ,and still working ,portrays a very convincing frustrated woman.
