Jackie Raynal plays director in a film in the process of being filmed. With great humor, she takes on the role of a filmmaker fighting to adapt a curious story: that of a 19th century countess who is raped by a bear. In periodic voiceover, she ironizes over the foibles of the nightmarish shoot - the fights with the actors, problems with the script and a failing budget - building a satire of the film-world and its vanity.
