Stijn (Barry Atsma) loves life and life loves him. He’s got his own business, a wonderful daughter and Carmen (Carice van Houten), his beautiful wife.
There’s no need for her to know that he occasionally enjoys the pleasures of other women. His heart belongs to Carmen and that’s all that matters.
Their idyllic world is shattered when Carmen goes to the doctor and hears the diagnosis every woman dreads. Life falls apart and they embark on a roller-coaster ride for survival.
Though supportive at first, Stijn soon escapes from the new harsh reality into the arms of the sexy, care-free Rose (Anna Drijver). As Carmen is bravely going through treatment, Stijn will learn what it really means to love.
