New York is slipping from Cleo’s grasp. Sure, she’s at a different party every other night, but she barely knows anyone. Her student visa is running out, and she doesn’t even have money for cigarettes. But then she meets Frank. Twenty years older, Frank's life is full of all the success and excess that Cleo's lacks. He offers her the chance to be happy, the freedom to paint and the opportunity to apply for a green card. She offers him a life imbued with beauty and art - and, hopefully, a reason to cut back on his drinking. He is everything she needs right now. 

Cleo, o pictoriță britanică în vârstă de 24 de ani, a lăsat în urmă Anglia și a ales să facă un masterat cât mai departe de casă, la New York, orașul care nu doarme niciodată. Aici îl cunoaște pe Frank. E cu douăzeci de ani mai mare decât ea, are propria firmă de advertising, construită prin propriile puteri, iar viața lui pare să aibă preaplinul și senzația de împlinire pe care și le dorește Cleo. Frank îi oferă șansa de a fi fericită, libertatea de a picta și ocazia de a aplica pentru cetățenie.
