Plot[edit]

A year after Anna and Greg meet at a party, Greg decides to move to Barcelona to take up a job as an air traffic controller. He wants Anna to come with him but she initially refuses. Greg is unhappy with her lack of ambition, while she is satisfied with her job as a waitress in Paris. Anna finally decides to join Greg in Barcelona but she misses her plane and later learns that it has crashed.
