Synopsis

Sur le point de mourir, un joueur invétéré implore son ami Adam de prendre soin de sa fille Evelyne, pensionnaire d'un orphelinat. Adam, fidèle à sa promesse, accueille la demoiselle sous son toit. Très vite, les ennuis commencent. Evelyne, en effet, prend Adam pour son père, et celui-ci n'a pas le courage de la détromper. D'autre part, Moira, la petite amie d'Adam, considère la jeune fille comme une rivale en puissance. Cédant à une pulsion sadique, elle révèle à Evelyne ses peu glorieuses origines...
