Obsessed with meeting Lisa, he finds out where she lives and hides in the apartment. However, when a different girl, Alice (Romane Bohringer), finds Max in the flat her resemblance to Lisa leads them to becoming romantically entwined.

Still determined to meet Lisa, Max finds out that she has a lover, and that her lover's wife has recently died in suspicious circumstances. Gradually Max is drawn into the mystery, which ultimately he hopes will lead him closer to Lisa.....
