Elias Koteas plays a filmmaker who sets out to make a new project in order to figure out how he’s screwed up every relationship he’s ever had. But, the filming spirals out of his control and he winds up having what’s either a mystical experience, a nervous breakdown, or both, as his past selves and loves literally and hysterically catch up with him.

The film also co-stars Virginia Madsen, Mike Vogel, Jane Seymour, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Gia Mantegna.
