Enrique Vázquez (José Sacristán) sería un abogado normal y corriente de los muchos que hay en España, sino fuera por su extraña obsesión: la erótica de la publicidad. Y nos referimos a la erótica en el sentido literal. Lo que más placer le da a Enrique en este mundo es un buen anuncio, ya sea en el periódico, en la radio o en la televisión. Su neurosis alcanza grandes proporciones y tiene muy preocupada a su esposa (Ana Belén).

Desideria falls madly in love with the sensual ambiance of the ancient, teeming city. She begins a passionate affair with a handsome Turkish guide, Yaman. Upon her return home, she learns that she is pregnant. Ramiro agrees to support the child, but unfortunately it dies in infancy and the grieving Desideria flees for Istanbul to find her lover. She finds him and they renew their torrid affair. Later she learns some distressing things about Yaman, but this does not stop her from becoming his sexual slave and a call girl for wealthy carpet sellers.
