When the truth becomes unbearable, people start lying - to each other and themselves. For Sarah and Bob it was love at first sight. She was a German music student and he was an American tourist. Now, years later, the picture-perfect marriage has itself become a lie - despite the white clapboard house in the New England countryside and two wonderful children. Sarah is lonely, but, in denial, she struggles desperately to keep it all together. Bob, basically a loving husband, starts to unravel. When they both begin affairs, their marriage reaches the point of no return.
