Helene, struggling with faithlessness, descends into desperation and numbness, hiding behind a conventional facade. She's shaken by her crisis and resigns from life, using insomnia to prepare breakfast and lunch for her indifferent husband. In despair, she seeks help and decides to lie to visit psychologist Eduard Gluck, whose soothing voice she heard on the radio. As their relationship unfolds, Helene hesitantly explores the connection between faith, violence, sin, and sexual degradation, wondering if original bliss lies beneath original sin.
