A dreamlike, erotically charged vampire mystery built on fragmented memory and sensual atmosphere rather than conventional horror or plot clarity.

Frédéric sees a photograph of a ruined seaside castle, which triggers a strange childhood memory. He then goes on a strange quest, aided by four female vampires, to find the castle and the beautiful woman who lives there.
