Tired of working as a psychotherapist, Sybilla decides to return to her first and greatest passion, which is writing. The book is to be a new impulse in the monotony of everyday life of a woman.

However, before you get on with her plan for good, a new patient suddenly appears in her office. She is beautiful and somewhat hysterical Margot. The young actress, who is at the beginning of her career, asks for help in resolving an important life dilemma. At first, a skeptical Sibyl discovers that Margot is becoming a source of inspiration for her. The fascination with obsession is only one step away, especially since the title heroine is increasingly involved in the turbulent life of her patient. Memories come to life, leading to an inevitable confrontation with the past.
 

Justine Triet creates a story about complicated, ambiguous interpersonal relations in a bittersweet tone. There is also a place to discuss intimacy, morality and reflection on the film medium. Triet says that one of her inspirations was Toni Erdmann, whose star Sandra Hüller plays the role of ... a director.
