IT. La giovanissima Bilitis lascia il collegio e la sua amichetta "particolare" per andare a trascorrere le vacanze presso la ricca Melissa e il di lei rozzo marito Pierre. Qui la ragazzina riprenderà i suoi giochi saffici malgrado la presenza di un giovane fotografo di cui è innamorata. Il soggetto è tratto malamente da una raccolta di poemetti in prosa del francese Pierre Louys.
