A former great silent film director, unable to adapt to the new sound cinema, lives almost as a hermit in his Hollywood home, making erotic silent films and suffering from his sexual impotence.
Before the opening credits, Veronica Cartwright is naked on screen, starring in a black-and-white adult film. Seven minutes later Veronica snuggles on the couch with a man. This time she is in color and wearing semi-sheer lingerie over her breasts and white stockings. Five minutes later the actress sits on the bed and uncovers her breasts while the man films her with the camera. The arrival of another man interrupts the filming. Thirteen minutes later we see the sequence from the beginning of the film again, this time in color, as the director makes it. Veronica Cartwright naked is on the bed with a man and having sex with him. Thirty-nine minutes later Jessica Harper is sitting topless on a bed preparing to shoot an erotic scene for a film. Soon after, the director stands over her and fondles her breasts, then sucks her nipples. The scene continues with Jessica Harper naked on the bed intent on chatting with the director walking around the room. The two are talking about filming. After a few minutes of discussion, the director gets on top of her and begins filming as he touches her breasts. Finally, the two have sex.
