Theatre director Jeanine is tasked with the revival of her former mentor and lover’s most famous work, a staging of the opera “Salome”. While working on the production, which deals with the trauma of the lead character Salome, Jeanine has to renegotiate several relationships in her own life. At the same time, her journey intersects with those of several singers and crew members in the production in unexpected ways. As the opening night draws closer, these various desires and ambitions begin to collide and the story of Salome takes on new meaning for Jeanine. (Berlinale)
