When Mira Harberg arrives in Paris to immerse herself in the coveted role of iconic villainous Irma Vep, an encounter with her former lover Laurie reignites dormant passions. Meanwhile, director René Vidal struggles as production woes threaten to derail his vision.

As René's erratic behaviour continues to threaten the production, Mira clashes with her agent, Zelda, about the future of her career - before assuming the role of Irma Vep for the first time. Meanwhile, costume designer Zoé deals with an unusual request from an actor.

A heart-to-heart with her ill-mannered co-star Gottfried causes Mira to revisit her past, while René is haunted by his relationship with his ex-wife - who played the role of Irma Vep in his 1996 film. Later, a breakthrough with Edmond leads to another on-set calamity.

Mira courts offers from both her agent and the production's financier, who promises a lucrative - but morally compromising - advertising deal. When actress Cynthia Keng arrives on set, René experiences a crisis of faith - and turns to his star for advice.

After shooting an iconic moment in which Moreno kidnaps Irma Vep, René faces backlash over the scene’s sexual implications. Meanwhile, Mira deals with complex emotions as she sinks deeper into her character.

After René's latest blow-up on set, production's new plan threatens to reunite Mira with a figure from her past.
