Plot

[edit]

Rachel works in a jewelry store. She meets Vincent in the workshop, whom she immediately likes. She is quickly seduced by his openness and so she decides to organize a dinner with their respective spouses, Franck and Teri. Both couples become friends during the meeting and consequently they fall in love with each other. Even if it happened unintentionally, the two couples become inseparable.

They surrender to their passion blindly, without rules and without lies. They keep the secret from the children and their own parents and their familiar everyday life continues as usual. However, emotional chaos soon ensues and jealousy grows.
