Hasta ahora, Simon sólo se ha interesado en chicos. Hace mucho tiempo que dio la espalda a su familia, sus deberes y a todo lo relacionado con la tradición judía. Rosalie fue criada en una familia judía de Nueva York y ahora da conciertos para el Circuito Cultural de Judíos Franceses, cantando canciones en Yidis con su voz de soprano. Cuando ve a Simon por primera vez, se enamora de su clarinete; Simon lo toca como un virtuoso. Rosalie no sabe nada de sus preferencias sexuales, y se lo imagina como un ser inspirado. A pesar de sus diferencias, el destino acaba por cruzar sus caminos...

This bright domestic drama captures a moment in time when, for a large number of idealistic and grateful French men and women, the promise of Russian communism was bright, and everything Russian was a source of joy and amazement. In the story, Irene was rescued from Auschwitz by soldiers from the U.S.S.R., and since that time she has enthusiatically considered Russia to be the source of hope in the world. Her more pragmatic husband has, by 1958, grown somewhat weary of her enthusiasm, which has led her to decorate their apartment with anything Russian she can get her hands on. Matters come to a head when she is befriended by three members of the Red Army Choir during their tour of Paris.
