Aumont, a noted surgeon, is dying from heart disease. His brain is transplanted into the body of Carriere, a German race car driver, who is dying of brain injuries. The transplant is a success, but problems arise when it's discovered that the surgeon's daughter, Machiavelli, was the
racer's lover. The film focuses on the moral and incestual themes and lets the horror aspects fall away.
