The story of a man with a camera installed inside his brain who can film everything he sees. The story of a woman, Katherine Mortenhoe, who runs away to “die free”. During a TV shooting, as she is trying to escape from the media, she doesn’t know that the man who’s helping her is actually filming her. A love story, a fairy tale, a melodrama in its truest sense, a work about feelings and their profanation: it’s Tavernier’s chance to challenge a great theme, at once lyrical and fantastic.
