A darkly comedic fantasy about a dissatisfied musician who blurs the line between dream and reality in pursuit of an idealized woman, exploring obsession and the gap between fantasy and waking life.

Gary, a musician, is trapped in an unhappy relationship with his live-in lover, Dora. He becomes enthralled with a beautiful seductress who enters his dreams, and tries to control his dream-state so he can spend more and more time with her. When Gary sees his mystery woman's face on a bus billboard, he discovers she is real, and fate brings him an opportunity to meet her.
