Paris of the 30s. The story of two American sisters, Laura and Kate Barlow, who have, according to rumors, supernatural abilities and know how to communicate with ghosts. During a performance in Paris, they meet French producer Andre Corben. Wanting to test his own skepticism and keen sense of curiosity, Corben invites the two sisters to conduct a private spiritual session: the result turns his world upside down. He is so surprised that he offers the ladies a contract to do this many more times. He wants to profit for himself with the help of the girls' abilities and create the first true ghost film. However, his sudden passion for both sisters is superimposed on his professional interest... The film reminds one of Hitchcock's classic thrillers - "Vertigo" and "Rebecca". It intersects the world of cinema and the world of spiritualism, dreams and nightmares, light and shadows, the past and predictions of the future.
