Rie and her lover Kishin run a modest private‑detective shop in Paris, filling downtime by guiding large groups of Japanese tourists around the city. When wealthy Japanese client Okuyama hires them to follow his French lover Lorraine, believing she is cheating, the easily‑beguiled Kishin is drawn into a seductive trap. He becomes entangled in a dangerous world of affluent Japanese businessmen, BDSM encounters, and massive sums of cash.
