A young couple moves into an apartment in Montreal and starts watching the sex life and arguments of the attractive couple living directly across the street. Their curiosity turns into obsession, leading to spying devices, interference, and big twists that end in murder and revenge. The story focuses on voyeurism, lust, infidelity, and the risks of watching other people's private lives, with lots of explicit sex and nudity. It features an interracial main couple and subtle same-sex subtext in one scene.
