Nine years ago in Before Sunrise, Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpy) two 23-year old travellers in Viena, met, fell in love and parted 24 hours later, promising to meet again in six months. Jesse is now in Paris promoting his novel that focuses on the encounter. Céline comes along to a reading. Afterwards, in the hour or so he has to spare before heading to the airport, they wander trough a sunlit and impossibly romantic Paris, talking. Both wer obviously deeply affected by their earlier encounter, and now, given a second chance, they both have to decide what to do next.
