An analysis of Alfred Hitchcock's behavior with his actresses in his movie sets. Taking archive pictures and intertwining them with images of an XXI century woman, exploiting our audio senses, an experimental look is created. This allows us to have a different perspective on a period of them in the film making industry where many actresses were victims of a sexist panorama.

Following his great success with "North by Northwest," director Alfred Hitchcock makes a daring choice for his next project: an adaptation of Robert Bloch's novel "Psycho." When the studio refuses to back the picture, Hitchcock decides to pay for it himself in exchange for a percentage of the profits. His wife, Alma Reville, has serious reservations about the film but supports him nonetheless. Still, the production strains the couple's marriage.

A tale of outsized ambition and outrageous excess, tracing the rise and fall of multiple characters in an era of unbridled decadence and depravity during Hollywood's transition from silent films to sound films in the late 1920s.
