Veteran Spanish actor Antonio Mayans is kidnapped by a director with whom he made a terrible film in the past, and whose career was destroyed by the failure of it. He seeks revenge and wants Mayans to act on his new project: a snuff movie.

The experimental film explores the visual representation of the Holocaust through a montage of thousands of excerpts from fictional films and television series produced between 1938 and the present.
