Ada is an English-born designer working for an haute couture house in Paris and living with her boyfriend, Paul. Paul is one half of a screenwriting team with Guido, whose romantic life leaves him in ruins. Paul and Guido are preparing a script for Alphonse, a womanizer and for Yves, a director married to Nina. Rounding out their circle is Lise, a young designer who fancies herself in love with Paul, and Emma, an aspiring cabaret artist whose materialism exceeds her means. Among them, relationships break, strain, form and reform, and along the way each learns something about the possibilities of life. And while the price may be painful, in this little film, it is never too high.
