Elena moves to New York with the same dream her mother had: to become a movie actress. She leaves behind a childhood spent in hiding during Brazil’s military dictatorship and her teenage years amid theater plays and homemade videos. She also leaves behind Petra, her 7-year-old sister. Two decades later, Petra also becomes an actress and goes to New York in search of Elena. All she has are a few clues about her: home movies, newspaper clippings, diaries and letters. At any moment, Petra expects to find Elena walking in the streets. Gradually, the features of the two sisters are confused; we don’t know one from the other.

The film opens with shots of Klaus Kinski performing – after his own interpretation – the role of Jesus. Kinski harangues the audience for not paying attention to him, curses wildly, has the microphone taken away from him, and, screaming, steals it back. Kinski left one of his Jesus tours to star in Herzog's film, Aguirre, the Wrath of God (1972). This was the first of five films that the two would make together, the others being Nosferatu the Vampyre (1978); Woyzeck (1978); Fitzcarraldo (1982); and Cobra Verde (1987).

Le documentaire retrace l'itinéraire de Patrick Dewaere, depuis ses débuts à l'âge de 4 ans jusqu'à son suicide, le 16 juillet 1982. On découvre ainsi qu'il appartient à une famille d'artistes dont les parents n'hésitent pas à mettre leur progéniture sur les planches et les plateaux de cinéma ou de télévision. Le métier connaît alors « les petits Maurin » que la maman, Mado Maurin, sait adroitement placer auprès des producteurs et réalisateurs. Le documentaire alterne ainsi des extraits de films et téléfilms et des entretiens avec son agent Serge Rousseau, Miou-Miou, sa fille Angèle Herry-Leclerc, ses épouses Sotha et Elsa-Malvina Chalier ainsi que le témoignage de plusieurs réalisateurs qui l'ont fait tourner parmi lesquels Bertrand Blier qui l'a reçu chez lui la veille de son suicide et avec lequel il a longuement dialogué.
