Plot
Parisian Romy (Diane Kruger) and her husband Richard (Gilles Lellouche) are vacationing in California. One night at a bar, Richard gets drunk and tries to rape Romy back in the hotel room. She hits him in the head with a lamp in self-defense and escapes, believing she has killed him. She goes on the run, trying to find work as she hides from the police. She makes it to Las Vegas, where she meets a stripper named Billie (Lena Dunham) and borrows some of her costumes in order to make her own money. After speaking with some police officers, she discovers that Richard is still alive.
One night, Romy meets Diego (Norman Reedus). They sleep together, and later he slips his address under her door. When her stripper friend throws her out, Romy travels to Diego's place out in the Californian desert, near the Mexican border. She finds out he is a park ranger, and they form a relationship.
Eventually Romy discovers that Diego is dying of cancer. He tries to push her away and tells her to leave, but meanwhile she discovers she is pregnant. Diego at first tells her to have an abortion, but relents and reconciles with her as his condition worsens. Romy remains with Diego until he dies, and later settles on his property with their child.
