Paul Racine (Christopher Lambert) -- a computer-chip executive from New York -- is on one of his many business trips to Nagoya. One night he meets a beautiful and mysterious woman named Kirina (Joan Chen) in the hotel lounge, and ends up having a one-night-stand with her. When he attempts to further the relationship into something more, Kirina implies that she has no future and thanks him for a beautiful night of pleasure and love. Dejected and somewhat confused by her behavior, Paul reluctantly leaves her to be alone as she requests.
