Oliver is a translator in Paris working on a book by an obscure French author. A chance meeting of his friend's sister on the metro leads to a torrid affair. When he discovers that she lives in the very neighborhood, and building, used in Bertolucci's controversial film 'Last Tango In Paris', their affair takes on eerie parallels. None of this is lost on Oliver, who is seemingly amused by it all. However it is a far cry from the film as these two middle aged lonely hearts throw caution to the wind, which may echo the film more than Oliver intends. 'Last Tondero In Paris' explores the tendency for people to act solely on their own selfish interests and desires, without giving a moment's thought to the inevitable consequences.
