Cécile, a stunning cover girl, is married to Philippe, but the only thing the marriage offers her is security.  The passion has long since gone out of the relationship and now Cécile languishes in boredom.  Love re-enters her life one 14th July, when she meets a good-looking man named Vincent.  It is love at first sight.  A modelling job takes Cécile to London, where she meets up with Vincent again.  With no chance of their liaison being discovered, they both surrender to their amorous desires.  Eventually, the time comes when Cécile must choose whether to return to France and a lifetime of marital monotony or else embark on a new life with the man she truly loves...
