Keine Liebe ist jemals unschuldig Im Paris der 50er-Jahre lernt David, amerikanischer Expat, in einer Bar den reizend überheblichen, löwenhaften Giovanni kennen. Die beiden beginnen eine Affäre – und Verlangen und auch Scham brechen in David los wie ein Sturm. Dann kehrt plötzlich seine Verlobte zurück und David bringt nicht den Mut auf, sich zu outen. Im Glauben, sich selbst retten zu können, stürzt er Giovanni in ein Unglück, das tödlich endet.
