Delpy plays Marion, a French photographer with vision problems. In a whirlwind open, Marion narrates her life to us, complete with a rapid slide show of images chronicling the most recent events with her boyfriend of two years Jack (Adam Goldberg). Then she lays out her itinerary, which includes two days in Paris. She has dreams in her head about what two days with her boyfriend in the most romantic of cities might be like but reality is about to hand her a few surprises.
