Claire is a skydiver who leaves her husband and travels to Spain to find her trainer/ex-boyfriend Augustine -- who is about to marry another woman. During Claire's five days in Spain, her life is turned upside-down, as she tries to win back Augustine, brawls with his fiancee, is befriended by two strange Brits, and encounters a very dangerous cab driver.
