When an impromptu train delay forces college student Jesse, an introspective American with dreams of writing a novel, to disembark in the enchanting city, he crosses paths with Celine, a free-spirited French woman who is on her way to visit her grandmother. Fueled by an instant connection and the magic of the moment, they seize the opportunity to explore the city together, realizing that this serendipitous encounter may be their only chance at love.
