While staying at a Bangkok hotel, Richard (Leonardo DiCaprio) learns of a secret beach that purportedly exemplifies paradise and travels with Françoise (Virginie Ledoyen) and Étienne (Guillaume Canet) to the magnificent strand, finding a bohemian community intent on keeping its precious refuge a secret. But after falling in love with the beach and Françoise, Richard learns things aren't as idyllic as they seem.
