French photographer Marion (Julie Delpy) and American interior designer Jack (Adam Goldberg) are returning from a vacation in Venice during which more than a few things went wrong–including gastroenteritis. They stop over in Paris to visit Marion's parents (Delpy's real-life parents Daniel Bruhl and Marie Pillet) before returning to the U.S., and the vacation continues its downhill trend with more than a few cultural misunderstandings between Marion's parents and Jack.
