Synopsis

A macho business executive suddenly has bedroom problems with his long-term wife and mother of his children.

Failure in any part of his life has never been an option.

So he recruits his wife into solving the problem through the "live our fantasy:" sex therapy technique pioneered by Dr. Leopold Baumgartner.

The wife discovers the dominatrix/diva buried beneath the gracious hostess, and they blackmail their high-rise super and a nervous burglar into taking part in the sex therapy.

The result is a comedy of fantasies gone wrong, taboos colliding with hidden yearnings, and sex-role switches run amok.
