His wife of twenty years, Jackie, a beautiful and successful managing director at a clothing designer shop, no longer connects with him.

Jackie is tempted by the attentions of a younger man at her office, and thanks to an opportunity suggested by a magazine article, Dan finds himself contemplating a drastic change in his life.
