Georges Duroi, dit Bel-Ami, est un jeune homme au physique avantageux. Le hasard d'une rencontre le met sur la voie de l'ascension sociale. Malgré sa vulgarité et son ignorance, cet arriviste parvient au sommet par l'intermédiaire de ses maîtresses et du journalisme. Cinq héroïnes vont tour à tour l'initier aux mystères du métier, aux secrets de la mondanité et lui assurer la réussite qu'il espère.

La presse, la politique, la finance s'entremêlent. Mais derrière les combines politiques et financières, l'érotisme intéressé, la mort est là qui veille, et avec elle, l'angoisse que chacun porte au fond de lui-même.
