  ## Synopsis
  
  While urgently trying to develop a screenplay for a new film, two screenwriters, the downbeat Crémieux and the optimist Seignier, create contradictory storylines as they argue, and as each takes turns in taking the narrative forward, they force the lead characters Henriette and Maurice into weird situations. The film switches back and forth between the writers at home and the film as it develops according to their ideas.
