Passion, like people, changes over time and it is in this state, that Nina finds her marriage. Her best friend is a reckless, footloose blonde who has spiced up her own marriage through a series of affairs she pursues when her husband is otherwise occupied. Her friend is currently involved in a tryst with a somewhat disheveled coffee barkeeper, but Nina is doubtful about such a set-up for herself. Nina is gorgeous, smart and leads a very comfortable life. However, her life becomes unsettled when her husband leaves town for three weeks and she grows smitten with a British photographer. Her dalliance with the photographer is short, intense, volatile, everything her marriage is not. But can she use this passion to help put that very thing back into the relationship with the man she truly loves?
