[edit] Plot summary
The story is about two Parisian girls, Nathalie (Revel), a stripper at a bar, and Sandrine (Seyvecou), a bartender, who get together to improve their social status.
Both the girls get fired from their jobs, and Sandrine is left homeless. Nathalie offers to share her apartment with Sandrine for a while. Both girls confide in each other, and make a plan to climb the social ladder by exploiting their sex appeal. Instead of trying to make a mark in a field traditionally associated with women, such as fashion, they decide it will be easier to rise in a male-dominated profession, because there will be less female competition. They manage to get jobs as secretaries in a banking corporation, and use their sexual deviousness to get promoted. Gradually, they gain control over their male bosses, whom they seduce through a series of heterosexual and lesbian acts. However, they might have met their match in Christophe, the owner's son, who seems intent on satisfying his perverse pleasures and breaking down his women in the process.
