Cuando Sophie (Vera Farmiga), una mujer estadounidense comienza una relación peligrosa con un atractivo trabajador inmigrante, para salvar su matrimonio, se encuentra a sí misma.
A neurotic, young psychology student, with low self-esteem, has a chance encounter with a free-spirited, extremely gregarious woman who works at the Paris Health Club in New York City, and who suggests that they immediately get married to see how it will work out. Both of the student's parents are analysts, and they provide the happy couple with a gift certificate for a year of marriage counseling as a wedding present.
