Nigel en Fiona, een degelijk Engels echtpaar, maakt een cruise naar Istanbul om hun huwelijk een nieuwe impuls te geven. Op het schip ontmoeten ze de invalide Amerikaanse schrijver Oscar en zijn bloedmooie, sensuele Franse vrouw Mimi. Oscar vertelt Nigel het verhaal van hun zinderende passie die hem op de rand van de afgrond heeft gebracht en hem zelfs invalide heeft gemaakt.
