Shortly before leaving for a trip to Europe, the celebrated Doctor Alejandro Mangino sees his former girlfriend Luca posing nude in an art class. He becomes infatuated with her once more, but after returning from Europe he finds she is married to his best friend, Ricardo. He tries desperately to avoid Luca, but struggles to overcome his obsessive feelings. She entices him into having an affair with her, despite the concerns of Luca's younger sister Cristina, who also has a crush on Doctor Mangino.
