Paul Exben is a success story - partner in one of Paris`s most exclusive law firms, big salary, big house, glamorous wife and two sons straight out of a Gap catalogue. But when he finds out that Sarah, his wife, is cheating on him with Greg Kremer, a local photographer, a rush of blood provokes Paul into a fatal error. Standing over the corpse of his wife`s lover, Paul knows that his perfect life has gone for good. But by assuming the dead man`s identity and fleeing for an isolated part of former Yugoslavia on the beautiful Adriatic coast, Paul gets another shot at being himself and, at last, seeing the big picture.
