In Los Angeles, 1959, actress Elizabeth Badina disappears during the shooting of the film that was to make her a star. Kidnapping? Murder? Voluntary disappearance? Despite the joint investigation by the police and the FBI, the case is never solved. In 1998, screenwriter David Badina, after a meteoric success at the box office, faces a creative crisis. Unable to carry out any project, he is contacted by Wallace Harris, a film legend and paranoid director, who asks him to work on the script for what will probably be his last film. They have never met, but a link unites both men: Wallace Harris is the director of the police drama that was to launch the career of Elizabeth, David's mother, and one of the last to see her alive. By accepting his offer, the screenwriter will try to discover what happened to his mother forty years earlier, even if it means unearthing old secrets that will shatter his life to pieces.
