Life is a minefield. One false step and there you are. How does it happen? Take, for example, Charles Schine (Clive Owen), a grand family man and commercial executive. He falls into company with charming financial analyst Lucinda Harris (Jennifer Aniston) in a commuter train. When he realizes that he doesn’t have enough money to pay for his ticket, Lucinda helps him avoid conflict with a ticket collector by paying his way. Then Charles invites her to lunch in return for her favor. They eventually develop a passionate connection and decide to go to a hotel. But no sooner have the amorous twosome torn each others’ clothes off than a violent thug, LaRoche (Vincent Cassel), storms into their room and robs them at gunpoint. He can’t seem to get enough — he beats up Charles and rapes Lucinda. Some days later, LaRoche demands lots of money, threatening to reveal their dirty secret to their families. But it appears that it’s too high a price to pay for an abortive liaison, and Charlie soon realizes that he will lose everything at one stroke unless he finds a way to outsmart the insidious LaRoche in his own game...

Leila and David get to know each other — which means being intimate — in bed, at the park, on the roof, everywhere. For them, and for other members of their generation, sex is a form of communication. But Leila starts to realize that her attachment to David is different from anything she's experienced before, and David is just as serious about her. For the first time, they experience needs and desires that go beyond the physical. It is an emotional connection they crave. Afraid of the feelings they have unleashed in each other, they retreat to the safety of their former lives. Real life, and the messiness of emotional attachments, have punctured their sexual and romantic bubble and threaten to keep the lovers apart. David's father dies after a long illness and he turns to his ex-girlfriend for support. Leila, meanwhile, is distracted by her parents' looming divorce. Leila and David are trapped between two worlds. Anonymous sex, or sex without context, is losing its appeal. But a conventional approach to commitment - marriage and the seemingly inevitable divorce that follows, as evidenced by Leila's parents — is not the answer.
