Greed, lust and faded love. Three very distinct feelings, which when combined together can dramatically affect the amount of attention one may pay to the 'detail'. Michael (Roger Newcombe) is looking forward to two weeks of bliss. His wife has gone away and he can spend the time frolicking with his young 'vixen' mistress. But it's not long until he finds that things do not always go to plan, and people do not always do as you would like. While doing his best to get rid of his nagging wife, obey his mistress's every command and trying to avoid the little old lady next door, Michael soon discovers that the 'devil is the detail'.
