The efforts of British actresses Emily (Jane Birkin) and Charlotte (Geraldine Chaplin) in an experimental playlet so impressed rich playwright Clémont (Jean-Pierre Kalfon) that he retained them for a one-off performance of an unfinished work for dinner guests at his palatial home. As they move into the house to commence rehearsal, they find the lines between theater and reality blurring. Jacques Rivette's challenging opus co-stars André Dussollier, Isabelle Linnartz. 125 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: French; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer. In French with English subtitles.
