Joseph, played by Craig Sheffer, and Maria, Sheryl Lee, are newlyweds. Within a few short months a number of problems surface in their relationship. In therapy, Maria reveals her inability to be satisfied by Joseph. Things get worse for the two when Joseph accidentally discovers that Maria is seeing a sex therapist. Joseph angrily confronts Baltazar, the sex therapist, played by Terence Stamp, but eventually seeks the therapist's help in understanding both his and Maria's sexual dysfunction.

This is a progressive film with concepts and information about our sexuality that may be very challenging for some viewers. However, I think it reveals classic male/female struggles and is done with sincerity and sensitivity.

From the visually impaired point of view, this movie went back and forth from easy to quite difficult to follow. There was lots of dialogue with almost no conflicting music in the background. There were only three major characters, each with distinct voices. That was very good. There were very few action scenes with abrupt changes. The movie, in general, went at a reasonable pace.

On the other hand, there were a number of scenes that had split second flashes, back and forth from one scene to another. This would have been totally lost without the information from my sighted assistant. There were a number of love-making scenes that needed sensitive descriptions to comprehend the full impact.
