The obsession of a man for a married woman leads to tragedy in this romantic melodrama. Juan Pablo Castel (Peter Weller) is an artist who sees a woman admiring one of his paintings at an art exhibit. When he goes to introduce himself, she quickly disappears. Castel follows her through the streets of the city and loses her twice before his successful meeting. He becomes obsessed with the beautiful Maria (Jane Seymour), who Castel learns is married to an older intellectual. Castel is not able to put the woman out of his mind, and his obsession proves fatal as the story unfolds in flashbacks.
