"Uno sceneggiatore di successo, Charlie Kaufman, cade in crisi creativa quando gli viene commissionato l'adattamento de "Il ladro di orchidee", libro biografico di una giornalista dedicato ad un fanatico floricoltore sempre alla ricerca di specie rare, tale John Laroche. Tanto per peggiorare lo stato dello scrittore, e minarne ancor più le già precarie certezze, interviene il fratello gemello di questi, Donald, un mediocre capace però di ottenere con facilità donne ed ingaggi miliardari anche nella novella veste di sceneggiatore d'azione. Charlie sfogherà i suoi rancori, frustrazioni e desideri di fuga nella scrittura, contaminando la storia a lui affidata di elementi personali che influenzeranno le sorti di tutti i protagonisti...
