不義之徒

Alec Fenton (Stellan Skarsgård), an American by adoption and his wife, Marjorie (Charlotte Rampling), an American of Greek origin, live with their two children in Athens. Both Alec's business life and his tender relationships with his daughter are guided by a playful but deeply felt need to interpret the smallest details of the world as significant. Under the influence of powerful signs and premonitions, Alec allows himself to veer in and out of a love affair with a colleague, Katherine (Deborah Kara Unger), eventually leaving his family and returning to America with his lover. Once there, however, the same belief system urges him back home for one final attempt to win back his family. But his new quest is endangered by the presence of a political activist, Andreas (Dimitris Katalifos), in his family's life. Andreas becomes the victim of a series of incidents, each one more threatening than the last.

三年前，美國商人亞歷克·芬頓和妻子及兩個孩子移居雅典。研究心理學的妻子馬喬裏在美國大使館工作。亞歷克與女兒西瑞特別接近，他們通過共同觀察一系列有預示和前兆的跡象和規律對世界有了特別的理解。馬喬裏與10歲的兒子馬庫斯有時難於理解他們。但在其他人看來，芬頓一家在一起十分快樂。一天晚上，亞歷克告訴妻子他愛上了年輕同事凱瑟琳。馬喬裏要求他立即結束這種關係。亞歷克第二天就這樣做了。一切歸於平靜，似乎什麼事也沒有發生。然而，當他們一家去瑞士度假，亞歷克出乎意料地碰見了凱瑟琳。亞歷克把這看作是他與凱瑟琳心有靈犀的徵兆，毅然地離開了妻子和孩子。

幾星期之後，亞歷克開始懷疑自己的決定。如果這根本就不是偶然的碰面怎麼辦？如果凱瑟琳能預知他的心跡，事先策劃了一切怎麼辦？他的猜忌摧毀了他與凱瑟琳關係的萌芽，他又回到妻子馬喬裏的身邊。然而，馬喬裏此時已經有了新伴侶——安德烈斯·蒂米斯，一個希臘新聞記者，他的存在已經給馬喬裏和孩子們造成了持續的影響……
