Storia
Rick, a successful screenwriter in Los Angeles, feels haunted and confused despite his flourishing career. In search of temporary solace from his existential emptiness, he indulges in Hollywood's decadent excesses. Women serve as distractions to his daily pain, each encounter bringing him closer to discovering his place in the world.
Riassunto
