A news reporter is given the task of covering a film star on the same evening that a major political event is unfolding. Frustrated with his mandatory assignment in entertainment journalism, the reporter is surprised to find an intellectual adversary in his subject. Confining most of the film’s action to exchanges between the two lead actors in the starlet’s apartment, the late Theo van Gogh uses minimal means to construct a telling dual portrait.
