Tonio, a young dancer, is at the height of his career in a ballet troupe that has been devastated by AIDS. He distances himself from the other dancers with his self-serving attitude and sharp wit. Even when he finds that he, too, is suffering fro an AIDS-related illness, he refuses to stop rehearsing for the upcoming show. He seeks comfort in a middle-aged therapist with whom he falls in love, despite their differences.
