action
The undemanding wildlife photographer Bryan Lighthouse is forced by the Croatian criminal Vadik Nikitin to marry his daughter Masha in order to pay off his debt. Masha's father wants his daughter to receive the United States Green Card . But Vadik has one condition for Bryan: He must not kiss or touch Masha. In return, he gives the two of them a honeymoon in a distant, tropical resort. Brick, Masha's future husband, who doesn't reciprocate Brick's feelings, travels after them.
On the first night, Bryan flirts with the hotel waitress Lani. When Masha sees this, she storms off angrily, believing that Bryan was not a philanderer. To apologize to Masha, he accepts Lani's suggestion to go to a secret beach surrounded by the tropical rainforest. When Bryan is having fun in the sea, Masha is kidnapped. Bryan returns to the hotel without knowing that Masha has been kidnapped. At the hotel reception he learns that his wife is in the shared suite. Once there, his wife turns out to be Bryan's assistant Tonya, who is in love with him. Bryan receives a call from the kidnappers and learns of Masha's abduction. Along with Tonya and Lani, he flees from Brick, who found out Masha has disappeared, and believes Bryan slept with Masha. Lani leads the two to her cousin Ernesto. With Ernesto's helicopter they search the island. Sexual tension arises between Ernesto and Tonya, so Lani and Bryan decide to search for Masha on their own. With the help of the inhabitants of a fishing village, they find a trace of the kidnappers. At the same time Ernesto and Tonya almost have sex, but Brick knocks them down. It turns out that Brick is in league with the kidnappers.
Masha is trapped in a tool shed and manages to break free. She overpowers her kidnappers and escapes into the rainforest. On her escape, she is found by Bryan and they flee from the kidnappers together. Bryan has since found out that Brick was behind the kidnapping. Masha and Bryan end up in a small village. There they come closer and sleep together. The next morning the village is stormed by Brick and the kidnappers. Masha manages to take out the two kidnappers. Meanwhile, Bryan and Brick fight. To save Bryan, Masha shoots Brick. Vadik realizes that Masha has fallen in love with Bryan and gives his wedding blessing. But Bryan refuses because he doesn't want anything to do with the criminal activity. Some time later, Bryan comes back to Masha and confesses his love in return. Ernesto and Tonya are also a couple.

reception
“No kissing contains some original details - like Masha's revenge on her kidnappers or one or the other animal costume. Otherwise, however, the film tends to disappoint because it exaggerates far too often and pushes the conventions of Hollywood-style narrative cinema to the limit of pain and beyond. That's a shame - because the basic idea is okay - but the film shows once more how much more would be a little less. "
