A 19-year-old college student from an upper-middle-class family has an affair with the 25-year-old mistress of a famous driver who competes in international horse races. He is treated like a kid by the woman until they come together at a winter resort and begin an amorous affair. When the driver comes home, the student gives up the woman in a noble gesture of maturity and respect for the love he has received from her in this bittersweet romantic film. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi
