The Great French Revolution is raging in France, and the fates of three young women — the aristocrat Orthance, the wallpaper factory worker Sophie and her sister, the maid Lara — are intertwined in the most bizarre way. After the death of their father, the sisters were forced to move from Marseille to the outskirts of Paris, where they got a job at the factory of Wilhelm Oberst — his wallpaper is famous for intricate drawings. Sophie falls in love with the son of factory owner Joseph, who is crazy about Lara — who reminds him of his mother, who died an untimely mysterious death, the heroine of countless idyllic scenes on antique wallpaper — but the wife of the young Oberst becomes a native of the Louvre, Orthance. The situation in the Oberst castle, the factory, and nearby revolutionary Paris is becoming increasingly alarming. Each heroine has her own reasons to fear for her own life and hide. Will they be able to escape from the bloody cycle of history?
