Bruno and Isabelle are in love. As her parents hold a birthday
party in her honour, Isabelle slips away with her lover and they take
refuge at a hotel. Here, Isabelle is surprised to meet up
with an old friend, Alain, and his wife Lio. Even though there is
nothing going on between Isabelle and Alain, Bruno soon becomes
suspicious and cannot see Isabelle in the same light. His
jealousy prompts Isabelle to rekindle her former affair with Alain,
whilst Bruno and Lio find themselves drawn increasingly towards one
another...
