The story takes place in New York, in the second half of the 1930's, aboard the cruise ship La Paz, where we witness the stormy encounter of a soured young businesswoman (Tony) and a handsome adventurer (Frank). We would not like to spoil the exciting storyline for you, but there is one thing you should know for sure: the ship is full of peculiar and funny figures that will surely put a smile on your face! There's Tony's fiance?, for example, the neurotic and vain aristocrat (Albert) - a still valid option for today's self-conscious women - and the beastly wife (Edith) with her little man living under the brutal oppression (Alphonse), a life-loving old lady (Irene), who even loved more to play tennis than drinking champagne: they all endlessly strive after happiness and desperately try to succeed in their own way.
