The charismatic 36-year-old businessman is secretly leading a triple life, passionately entangled with two younger lovers: Julien, a handsome French student, and Chloe, a soulful literature major.
A virtuoso of manipulation, Richard supports and adores all three, using lavish gifts and tailored affection to make each feel like the center of his world. He thrives on the complexity, believing his lies are a fair price for everyone’s happiness. But such a fragile web cannot hold.
