The story of a young man lost in Paris. He
scratches out a living as a Michael Jackson look-alike, dancing on
the streets, public parks, tourist spots and trade shows.
Different from everyone else - he feels as if he is floating
between two worlds. During a car show, he meets
Marilyn Monroe (impersonator) and follows her to
a commune in the Highlands, joining her husband Charlie Chaplin
and her daughter Shirley Temple. A place where everyone is
famous and no-one gets old. Here, The Pope, The Queen of
England, Madonna, James Dean and other impersonators build a
stage in the hope that the world will visit and watch them
perform. Nuns fall out of airplanes and children ride pigs.
Everything is beautiful, until the world shifts and reality
intrudes on their utopian dream.
Diego Luna plays a Michael Jackson impersonator in this film.
