Investment banker Frank (Hans-Werner Meyer) is a high-flyer, always on the move, the next huge deal already in his briefcase. The job of a lifetime, which would bring him the final breakthrough into the executive suite, is in the offing, when the original French sausage factory Albert is about to merge with a Swiss bank. At the airport on his way to Paris, he spontaneously lends the writer Patrizia Munz (Jessica Schwarz) the money to upgrade her ticket because she is blocking the check-in counter in front of him and he is in danger of missing his appointment. Patrizia is also in a hurry to get to Paris. Her lover Jean-Jacques is in a coma after a car accident. At his bedside in the intensive care unit, she discovers that another woman is already sitting there. Jean-Jacques' wife Francoise (Sandrine Bonnaire), who at first does not think of tolerating the foreign German woman at her side. Only after some time does Francoise realise that she can only make the decision about Jean-Jacques' life and death together with Patrizia. A responsibility that Patrizia, however, does not want to face. She has started a wild affair with another man in Germany to escape the bitter reality. Frank has also returned to Germany. The million-dollar deal has fallen through; he has been deceived in cold blood. Overnight, the manager, who is used to success, is not only faced with dismissal, but also with the ruins of his life. Even for Patrizia, who has sent him back the money she borrowed and contacts him once more to seek his advice, he is uninteresting. Frank and Patrizia have lost their footing. Both, however, independently return to Paris to start over. Their paths cross again there...
