En 1941, Helen Bynum decide dejar su hogar familiar y se traslada al barrio francés de Nueva Orleans, donde se reúne con su tía, una actriz cuya belleza se ha visto afectada por el alcohol y una vida disoluta. Allí, Helen descubre la vida en su forma más apasionada y aventurera. Enfrentada a realidades y dilemas hasta entonces desconocidos, experimenta el deseo y el amor, la amistad y sus desilusiones, en compañía de sus amigos, intelectuales bohemios. Su mundo se entrelaza con el misterio sofocante de una ciudad cuya sensualidad se magnifica en esta historia.
