A simple story of love and loss told three times in three different cities: New York, Berlin, and Tokyo. Repeating the same situations and dialogue but with subtle shifts of emphasis, the film evolves from the turbulence of America to the benign calm of Japan. The crisis in each story is set off by the indecisiveness of the main character, the flirt, and his or her need for reassurance: should they surrender to a love that will demand patience or check out other possibilities first?
