Aspiring actress Nina Wu secures the lead role in a 1960s spy thriller, but the production's intense requirements, including nudity and explicit scenes, are compounded by a demeaning director. As her career appears within reach, Nina’s mental state deteriorates under the relentless pressure. Plagued by unsettling visions and a sense of being stalked, she returns to her family home, where she is forced to confront painful repressed memories that challenge her perception of reality and threaten her stability.
