An aging film star rehearses the monologue of Salome and tells the young playwright the plot of the film in which she wants to act. In the performance of the great actress, this narcissism is at once funny, theatrical and tragic. Her memories of a former movie that was mute and black and white are full of nostalgic longing. Her experiences are connected with the feeling of losing reality, in which she no longer feels a support. The relatives around her envy her glory, but at the same time admire her - as a person who has risen to the summit of glory overnight, and now is experiencing a sunset.

Vladimir Korenev, a star of Soviet cinema, theater actor and teacher, makes his debut as a director on the Small Stage of the Electrotheatre and composes a story about the theater as a constant element of human life, about love, turning into envy and hatred, about attempts by an ex-celebrity to keep afloat. The performance was decorated by the chief artist of the Electrotheater Stanislavsky Anastasia Nefyodova, who invented a spectacular image of recycling materials. Composer Alexander Belousov and choreographer Andrey Kuznetsov-Vecheslov together with the artists compose a stage equivalent to stories telling about the actor's place in real life.
