Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

The debate between gender roles and the nature of masculinity and femininity in the '90s provides the basis of this romantic comedy. Dan is divorced and designs ladies lingerie for a living. Sarah is a powerful business executive. She and Dan spend one night making passionate love and then lose track of each other. This is unfortunate, for each is interested in knowing the other better. Sensitive Dan spends much of the film discussing his plight to macho married-man Simon while career-oriented Sarah shares her thoughts with Michelle, a young beauty who allows herself to be abused by her married lover. As the four converse, they offer insight into the plight of modern men and women in a modern society. In the end, a pleasant twist of fate reunites the lonely Dan and Sarah.
