A Couch in New York

“A Man... A Woman... A Dog... The perfect combination for romance...”

Henry Harriston (William Hurt), a worn-out New York psychoanalyst, swaps apartments with a stranger from Paris and leaves town. His patients keep their appointments with Béatrice Saulnier (Juliette Binoche), who talks with them and then takes their pay. Chantal Akerman sends Henry back early, and he ends up on his own couch, with his old routines and the woman who now lies in them both at stake.
