Synopsis
A woman gets a belated introduction to the joy of sex in this comedy. Priscilla is a thirtysomething public-relations agent with the unenviable job of trying to lure new businesses to Cleveland, OH. Priscilla is married to Jack, a high-school teacher who is reaching the end of his patience with his career. Things aren’t going especially well at home for Priscilla and Jack—she seems unable to have an orgasm, and while Priscilla insists she's perfectly happy with their sex life, Jack is driven to distraction by his inability to arouse his wife. When Kristen, one of Jack’s students, begins displaying an extra-curricular interest in him, he throws caution to the wind and begins an affair with her, and has soon moved out of the house. Left on her own, Priscilla finally begins feeling sexual frustration, and turns to Alyssa, an outspoken sex therapist who advises her to learn how to pleasure herself. Alyssa’s advice proved to be right on the money, and soon Priscilla is a changed women who is looking for a new man in her life. She soon finds one in Wayne, a swimming-pool salesman whose sloppy appearance belies his talent in the bedroom.
