Accountancy, murder, amnesia, torture, ecstasy, understanding, redemption.

A crackpot ex-nun (Isabelle Huppert) who writes pornographic short stories crosses paths with an amnesiac (Martin Donovan) wandering the streets of New York City. When they set out to uncover his identity, they come face to face with his unsavory past - including a vengeful porno actress (Elin Lowensohn) and ruthless corporate assassins hot on their tail.

One thing is certain, they are all amateurs when it comes to affairs of the heart. "A sharp-witted thriller, the extraordinary cast brings snap and surprising heart to Hartley's riffs on sex, lies and exploitation." - Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
