The film starts with Solange, a professor in history and theatre arts at NYU. She brings her class to the park for her closing talk on 'fiction and the real'. Soon the class is folded into a fiction about life, love, time, politics, mathematics and more, all the while excavating the inner psyche of its characters.

As Solange brings her dream of 'Paradise' into being: a
deconstruction of the messianic, sugar-coated Matrix fantasy, characters become authors who create characters who become authors: a Hoffmannesque nesting of consciousnesses begins.

Solange dreams her family into the future, conjures her characters into the present, and leaves them haunted by an unremembered past. She renames her children Jules and Juliet, makes them lovers, siblings who like to pretend that they are pretending to be sister and brother, and who keep love and memory alive by impersonating each other. Her husband Roman, haunted by a chill presentiment of that first, malevolent thriller, finds himself receding into an infinity of other lives, as if there were no death only dissolving.
