Channe (Leelee Sobiesky) tut sich schwer mit ihrem "neuen" Bruder Benoit (Jesse Bradford): Der kleine Franzose kommt im Paris der 60er Jahre als Adoptivkind in die Familie des amerikanischen Mädchens. Channes Eltern, der Schriftsteller Bill Willis (Kris Kristofferson) und seine Frau Marcella (Barbara Hershey), müssen anfangs so manchen Streit zwischen den Kindern schlichten. Doch schon bald ist das Duo unzertrennlich...
