Summary

A silent film, destroyed in a fire in 1913, before it was seen by its director. A lowly seamstress who believes her talent - and the secret she keeps - will soon get her a dressing room of her own. A beautiful house in Paris, with a curving staircase, a lake and locked rooms. A famous creator of cinematic illusions, husband to a beautiful actress, the most adored icon of the Parisian studios. All fit together, like scenes in a movie. And as you will see, this plot has a twist we beg you not to disclose.
