4 young people are long time friends. They have a dinner together, which will turn into a mess when they play a game which consists in writing a vow on a little piece of paper to be put into a bottle: they love each other, but they are not able to transcend their loneliness and their selfishness.

Ned, a petty criminal, falls into the trap laid by Frank, a sadistic cop who, after having beaten him, takes him home. But Frank's wife Lily helps Ned escape and they fall in love.
