Mimi, the mistress of a successful middle-aged actor who takes himself too seriously, leaves him to throw in her lot with Rodolphe, a young dramatist, and his equally gifted but equally graceless, procrastinating and penniless companions. She inspires them to produce the works of art which they were previously too lazy to create; but Rodolphe's triumph is the ultimate cause of her own destruction. (Network)
