A paroxysmal dream emerges from the depths of Kieslowski's filmography and awakens the doomed Iranian director Sohrab who, banned from making films, spends his days in a neighborhood cafe. However, the request of a young woman to present her performance in the store will mean new troubles, both for his already troubled marriage and for his strained relations with the authorities who are pressuring him to give "juicy" information if he wants to ease his fall.
