About
A British couple on a cruise to Istanbul meet a disabled American writer and his French wife, and the writer recounts his relationship.
On a cruise ship bound for Istanbul, the British couple Nigel (Hugh Grant) and Fiona (Kristin Scott Thomas) meet Oscar (Peter Coyote), a disabled American writer, and his French wife Mimi (Emmanuelle Seigner). Oscar invites Nigel to his cabin and recounts in detail how he and Mimi met on a bus in Paris and fell in love. The account goes on to describe the sexual games they explored, including bondage, sadomasochism and voyeurism. Nigel passes the story on to Fiona. Oscar's openness unsettles them, but Nigel remains fascinated by Mimi, who provokes him. The two couples become entangled as Oscar continues to share his confessions.
