In an oppressive film universe, divided into Outtake, Extra, and Lead persons, an Extra girl who wants to be a Lead, searches data about her dead father, and in her adventure she discovers many truths about freedom, identity and love.

In a repressive three class-society, Paula, a simple Supporting Character, is about to face the most important test of her life: she has to prove she deserves to be a Lead. She is at the top of her class at the Main Character School - but so far has failed in generating great emotional music. In search of a solution, she finds herself in the abyss of the cinematic world, on the fringes of the storyline and lost amongst the Outtakes.
