As Travers and Beatrice are enjoying a relaxing drink in the garden one summer's evening, it transpires that he has met an acquaintance of hers, which may or may not have led to an affair. Their individual relationships with this mysterious woman take on a heightened significance as the distinctions between what is real and what is an illusion increasingly blur. | |||||

After seventeen years of marriage, Ralph and Louise are both driven to adultery as a response to changes in themselves and their relationship - Ralph cannot let go of his 1960s idealism while it has taken the materialism of the 1980s to allow Louise to discover her true strengths and abilities. During the course of a hot summer night in a Parisian hotel room, where Louise has tracked down Ralph and his young companion Bel, they embark on a soul searching attempt to come to terms with their feelings and reactions to the changing nature of their relationship. | |||||
