A radiation leak has affected a bunch of people whose brains are slowly rotting away, cell by cell, and they gradually lose their memories, get random anxiety attacks, and become prone to flashes of rage and violence. The government has tucked them away in a "black tower," a shiny office building, where a heartless doctor and a few henchmen oversee their descent into zombie-state torpor even as they try to administer medicine to alleviate their suffering.

Violette Noziere (Isabelle Huppert) is a French teen in the 1930s who secretly works as a prostitute while living with her unsuspecting parents, father Baptiste Noziere (Jean Carmet) and mother Germaine Noziere (Stephane Audran). Rebelling against her "mean and petty" petit-bourgeois parents, she falls in love with a spendthrift young man, whom she virtually supports with thefts from her parents as well as her prostitution earnings. Meanwhile, her parents are informed by Violette's doctor that she has syphilis. Violette manages to half-persuade her suspicious mother and indulgent father that she has somehow inherited the disease from them. On this pretext, she tricks them into taking "medicine" that is actually poison, killing her father; her mother, however, survives, and Violette is arrested and charged with murder. She defends herself by alleging that her father had molested her; Chabrol's abrupt use of flashbacks makes it uncertain whether Violette is simply lying or telling a half-truth. She is convicted of murder and sentenced to die by guillotine, but a voiceover at the end tells us that her sentence was commuted by degrees to the point that she ultimately left prison, married, and had five children.
