A talented classical flute player (flautist), name of Kruger, married with two small children, is drawn to and ultimately seduced by an older man of the world, rich, sophisticated and elegant Charles DuLong, a music impresario who can help Kruger in his career. Kruger's wife Sara, heartbroken and dismayed, throws her husband out. In time, she meets a new man, another talented musician by the name of Claude who wins her heart. Meanwhile, Kruger wants to come back to her and the children. Sara is torn between Kruger and her new lover who has been offered a symphony chair in Berlin, and wants her and the children to join him there, a very large decision which she is hesitant to make. When it turns out that Sara is pregnant with Claude's child, and undecided about her feelings toward Kruger, she cannot tell either man, but chooses to have an abortion as her only alternative. A somewhat demented anti-abortion activist intervenes outside the abortion clinic, with tragic results for all involved. The story is a new twist on gay culture, though it is much more than that, having to do with the human heart and love's confusions.
