In Dublin, precocious culinary celebrity Oliver (Richard Coyle) lives his life in a succession of relationships that last precisely six months. When his latest girlfriend kicks him out (naked) onto the street he meets beautiful and fiery Spaniard Bibiana (Leonor Watling), whose own relationship is in the process of imploding. Despite having little in common their relationship starts well; he teaches her about his passion for food and she opens his eyes to a world beyond the kitchen. But as the six-month deadline approaches Oliver gets cold feet and a bumpy ride begins.
