Synopsis

The story, based on a novel by popular French writer André Armandy, revolves around twin sisters who are separated as small children following a disaster at sea and as a result live very different lives. Fast forward 20 years: one twin, Jola (re-christened Oédidée in the surviving French version of the film), is living in seclusion on a remote island with the blind missionary who saved her. Sharing the otherwise deserted island with them is a group of vicious yet (thankfully for Jola and the missionary) God-fearing bandits, led by their bandit queen, Dolores Coreto. The other twin, Claire, has meanwhile plunged headlong into the hedonistic Parisian party life, and is a vamp of the first order, with no remorse for the trail of broken lovers she leaves in her wake.
