Synopsis

Although Liza Elliot is at the top of her field as the successful editor of a fashion magazine, her mysteriously profound lack of fulfillment frightens her into psychoanalysis. She has been unsettled by confused and fantastic dreams, the central characters of which are, in various guises, four men: her married lover, a handsome if shallow movie star, the magazine's flamboyant photographer and her chief nemesis, the cynical advertising manager. Ultimately, it is the memory of a haunting childhood song that she has been unable to recall that sets her free.
