Le réalisateur "Nicholas Ray" est impatient de terminer un dernier film avant sa mort imminente d'un cancer. Wim Wenders travaille sur son propre film Hammett (1983) à Hollywood, mais s'envole pour New York pour aider Ray à réaliser son dernier souhait. L'intention initiale de Ray est de faire un film de fiction sur un peintre mourant qui navigue vers la Chine pour trouver un remède à sa maladie. Lui et Wenders discutent de cette idée, mais c'est évidemment irréaliste compte tenu de l'état de santé de Ray.

C’est un documentaire en hommage à Jacques Demy et à son oeuvre Les Demoiselles de Rochefort, film qui fut tourné pendant l'été 1966. La ville de Rochefort organisa une grande fête en 1992 pour célébrer les 25 ans de la sortie du film en 1967. Profitant de l’occasion Agnès Varda a tourné ce documentaire en mêlant des plans du tournage de l’époque en 1966 par Varda elle-même, des extraits, des interviews d’acteurs et figurants Rochefortais qui ont participé au tournage du film.

The film is the equivalent of a walk through a cinema museum. The doc interviews many modern-day directors of photography and they illustrate via examples their best work and the scenes from films that influenced them to pursue their art.
