A visually sumptuous, theatrically stylized meditation on love and commitment set against Las Vegas's artificial dreamscape, where fantasy and reality collide in a single transformative night.

In a dazzling, dreamlike Las Vegas, longtime couple Hank and Frannie break up on their fifth anniversary and each pursue the fantasy of new love over one neon-soaked night—he with a free-spirited acrobat, she with a seductive musician. But as illusion and reality blur, both must decide whether passion or devotion truly defines the heart.
