The film shows Peter Sellers as a complex and tormented genius, whose success as a film star concealed his difficult and relatively unhappy private life. This "troubled life" is the primary focus of this biopic, which personalizes "one of the greatest comic actors in the history of the British cinema," and shows the many masks he wore and characters he played as an actor.

In 1927, silent film star George Valentin is posing for pictures outside the premiere of his latest hit film when a young woman, Peppy Miller, accidentally bumps into him. Valentin reacts with humor to the accident and shows off with Peppy for the cameras. The next day, Peppy finds herself on the front page of Variety with the headline "Who's That Girl?" Later, Peppy auditions as a dancer and is spotted by Valentin, who insists that she have a part in Kinograph Studios' next production, despite objections from the studio boss, Al Zimmer. While performing a scene in which they dance together, Valentin and Peppy show great chemistry, despite her being merely an extra. With a little guidance from Valentin (he draws a beauty spot on her, which will eventually be her trademark, after finding her in his dressing room), Peppy slowly rises through the industry, earning more prominent starring roles.

François, cinéaste, s'apprête à tourner un film policier. Il fait passer des essais pour une scène de nu à une comédienne qui lui révèle le plaisir qu'elle éprouve dans la transgression de petits interdits érotiques. Poussé par le désir d'apporter quelque chose de nouveau dans le cinéma, il décide de mettre en scène un film mi-fiction mi-réalité, tournant autour de ce qui se révèle de façon inattendue une énigme et un tabou : les petites transgressions qui donnent du plaisir. Sa recherche dans le domaine érotique le confronte à des questions de fond auxquelles, tout comme Icare s'approchant du soleil, il va se brûler les ailes.
