SYNOPSIS:
A young couple, Frank and April Wheeler (Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet), living in a Connecticut suburb during the mid-1950s struggle to come to terms with their personal problems while trying to raise their two children. Determined to identify themselves as superior to the mediocre sprawl of suburbanites who surround them, they decide to move to France where they will be better able to develop their true artistic sensibilities, free of the consumerist demands of capitalist America.
As their relationship deteriorates into an endless cycle of squabbling, jealousy and recriminations, their trip and their dreams of self-fulfillment are thrown into jeopardy.
