Fred Segal is a dynamic, hip commercial director. Everything is going well for him, except that his wife. Lise, a beautiful model, has decided to leave him, partly because he doesn't use her in his films. She kicks him out and he leaves, his computer under his arm, in search of a new haven, which turns out to be an ordinary hotel room. The classical music he hears in the subway does him a lot of good.
