Geschichte
Anais, a young theater actress, becomes consumed by her preparation for an audition when she decides to fully immerse herself in the role of Sarah Kane from 'Psychose 4:48'. Her method acting leads her down a dark path as she begins to embody the character's promiscuous and self-destructive behavior. She engages in casual sex, provokes fights, and even starts harming herself. This extreme dedication causes tension between Anais and her mentor/director Maurice, leading Anais to leave for London to further explore Kane's life. Upon returning to France, she decides to sever ties with her past by ending her relationship and starting a new one with a woman named Justine. The question remains whether Anais can separate herself from the character she has become before it's too late.
