Summaries

A worn-out businessman and a beautician on the run collide in a Paris airport. Love arrives, all its hurdles be damned.

At Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, a beautician on her way to a new job in Mexico accidentally meets a cook who is on his way back from America. Labor strikes, bad weather, and pure luck cause the two of them to share a room overnight at the airport Hilton hotel. Will their initial mutual indifference and downright hostility turn into a one night stand or perhaps something more?—Dragomir R. Radev
