A couple from Milan, Sandra and Paolo, engage in a series of extramarital affairs, reconciliations, escapades, and eventual divorce, beginning during a vacation to Mauritius. Sandra becomes involved with a handsome doctor, Marcello, while Paolo falls for Lisa, a professional billiards player.
Brigitte Nielsen was nominated for a Golden Raspberry ("Razzie") for Worst Actress at the 10th Golden Raspberry Awards, where she ended up losing to Heather Locklear for The Return of Swamp Thing.
Los Angeles Times panned the film as thematically repetitive, "daringly banal", and a failure as a sex farce because so little of it is actually comedic. Billiards film review site 8 Ball on the Silver Screen also criticized the film for its unbelievable billiards scenes that indicated no training of Nielsen for the role.
