In Paris, Dominique (Isabelle Huppert), a successful fashion professional, solicits the services of the handsome Quentin (Vincent Martinez), a bisexual bartender and hustler, who is fifteen years her junior. Their encounter quickly turns into a passionate affair. But as Dominique becomes increasingly obsessed with Quentin's elusive past, their relationship spirals into a volatile struggle defined by class and power.

“Swank, thoughtful... gives full rein to that rare actress [Huppert] who, as tears stain her cheeks, can radiate a heroic insolence toward the man she love-hates.” –TIME
