Ce documentaire retrace la biographie surprenante de l'artiste légendaire Maya Deren. Née à Kiev en 1917, elle devint un personnage central de l'avant-garde américaine après la Deuxième Guerre mondiale. Surtout connue pour son travail anticonformiste dans le film expérimental, elle était très active dans d'autres domaines politiques et culturels : elle fut poète, danseuse, et par-dessus tout une ethnographe renommée et une adepte des pratiques vaudou.

The film looks at the relationship between Polley's parents, Michael and Diane Polley, including the revelation that the filmmaker was the product of an extramarital affair between her mother and Montreal producer Harry Gulkin. It incorporates interviews with Polley's siblings from her mother's two marriages, interviews with other relatives and family friends, Michael Polley's narration of his memoir, and Super-8 footage shot to look like home movies of historical events in her family's life. The cast in the Super-8 re-creations includes Rebecca Jenkins, who plays Diane – who had died of cancer, on January 10, 1990—the week of Polley's 11th birthday.
