The film"s page
Clive Langham, un célèbre écrivain vieillissant et maladif, imagine dans son lit ce qui sera probablement son dernier chef d’œuvre. A partir des personnages de sa propre vie, son fils, son fils illégitime, sa belle-fille et sa femme décédée, il réinvente sa propre vie en un roman. Il espère ainsi régler ses comptes avec lui-même et son passé. Mais à mesure qu’avance le processus de création littéraire, l’imaginaire de l’écrivain chancelle. Peu à peu la maîtrise de son univers et de ses créatures commencent à lui échapper.
