剧情
故事講述一位劇場導演（菲力普西蒙霍夫曼飾），正苦心構思他的新戲，但他平淡的生活與面臨瓶頸的創作生涯，正漸漸走向崩解的邊緣…凱登的老婆艾黛兒（凱瑟琳基納飾）帶著女兒離開他，前往柏林追求自己繪畫方面的理想；凱登與迷人的海柔（莎曼珊莫頓飾）之間若有似無的曖昧關係，不幸面臨早夭的命運；而凱登的心理醫師瑪德琳（琥珀戴維絲飾）完全無視於凱登遭遇的種種問題，只顧行銷自己的新書卻無心給予凱登任何諮商。此時，凱登竟又發現自己得了莫名的怪病，他的生理自主機能正一一喪失，突如其來的死亡陰影緊緊籠罩著凱登。 憂懼於死亡的威脅，凱登決心要把握僅有的時光，完成一齣畢生傑作。他在曼哈頓的一座倉庫裡搭建了紐約縮影模型，並召集了一批演員共同製作一部貼近他真實人生的劇碼，試圖忠實而赤裸地呈現人生中殘酷、溫暖與令人心碎的片段，但隨著倉庫裡縮小版的紐約市日漸成型，凱登的人生卻逐漸偏離常軌，更多的問題接踵而至。演員們的演出，與凱登的現實世界產生相互影響的複雜交疊，現實與舞台的模糊界線，更突顯出人生如戲的一面。經過了多年，凱登愈形埋首於這部嘔心瀝血之作，但無論現實生活或舞台創作都已使他心力交瘁，此時女演員米莉森（黛安薇絲特飾）的出現，將可能是凱登撥雲見日的唯一契機… 名編劇查理考夫曼以《王牌冤家》、《蘭花賊》與《變腦》等片聞名，首次執導便入選坎城影展金棕櫚獎競賽片，幾位實力派影后級演員，蒂妲絲雲頓、凱瑟琳基納與琥珀戴維絲等都將在片中現身。 影片歷時兩年創作，以充滿創意、幽默並略帶幻想的方式，深入探索人生必經的難題與過程，死亡、病痛、孤獨與愛情關係等看似嚴肅而沉重的主題，都在考夫曼巧妙的編導安排之下，呈現出一股夢境般的超現實魔力。
