A melancholic, visually enchanting tale of a young orphan's obsessive fascination with a mysterious actress, blurring the line between fairy tale fantasy and lived reality.
Jeanne, a 15-year-old orphan, witnesses the shoot for a film adaptation of the fairy tale The Snow Queen, and she becomes fascinated by its star, Cristina, an actress who is just as mysterious and alluring as the Queen she is playing.
