A wedding party, an estate and a day with fatal consequences: the newly wed Sonja unexpectedly meets her ex-lover Michael Platonow at her own wedding party, with whom she once wanted to change the world. Platonow presents himself as a witty, charming and at the same time cynical entertainer, creating an irresistible aura that women succumb to. Sonja feels the same way: suddenly her life is turned upside down, she questions everything, especially the marriage that was only concluded in the morning. Platonov is still a heartthrob, but is now married and has a son. But even he cannot help the old attraction: in a moment of emotional confusion, he promises Sonja another life for two.
