France, early 1960s. Simon, a wrestler who wears a white mask and is known as "The Specter", suggests that his friend Victor be his adversary, wear a black mask and be known as "The Slaughterer of Belleville". But for Victor, who has just returned from war, this is too much: for once in his life he would like to be the good guy. Simon suggests that they switch masks, but it is not easy to fool the wrestling crowd.
