Plot

The story is about a middle-aged couple, Madeleine and William who enjoy a comfortable, smooth life. They decide to buy a house in a scenic but isolated rural setting and this changes their lives forever. They come across a younger pair, Adam and Eva and the couples become attracted to each other. Their love results in an exploration of erotic desires and art in the idyllic French Alps region.

As this unexpected journey begins, Madeleine and William try to comprehend what is happening in their lives and the swinger's life-style that they have fallen into. After a time, they find that the sexual interactions are both interesting and addictive.

When Adam and Eva leave France, Madeleine and William start to become unsettled and decide to sell their home and join Adam and Eva on a Pacific island. The house-for-sale advertisement attracts some interested couples to a house inspection when another couple emerges. Madeleine and William invite them to stay for dinner, which turns into a romantic adventure as with Adam and Eva.

Suddenly, Madeleine and William understand that they need not go to the Pacific for the lifestyle as they can find romantic interactions in their current settings. The understanding between Madeleine and William is dramatic.
