It is 1980's Los Angeles. Alys, a wealthy young dilettante accepts the invitation of a stranger to \"get you into pictures\" and suddenly finds himself behind the movie screen in the black-and-white world of the Silents - a Hollywood precisely as it was in the 1920's: a world where love is the only subject matter but passion can be expressed solely within the censor's strict limits. Where neither love nor death can last beyond the moment when the director says \"Print That!\".

Screenplay is fiction as tauntingly erotic as it is brilliantly imaginative - a mysteri­ous and captivating novel that, while unique in itself, shares the magic of John Fowles's The Magus and Nabokov's Pale Fire.
