In a charming corner of New York, we meet Daisy Gamble, a free-spirited woman with an innate curiosity that drives her to explore the world beyond the ordinary. Daisy, portrayed by Barbara Streisand, feels trapped in her current life and seeks answers about her past. After an attempt to quit smoking, she is drawn into a hypnosis session, where her therapist, Dr. Marc Chabot (who is also a dreamer and a romantic), begins to uncover the hidden secrets within her mind.
As Daisy delves into hypnosis, she revisits her past lives, revealing fragments of her existence as a woman in 18th century England. Here, the journey becomes mesmerizing, as her alter ego is an aristocrat with a tragic love story and an uncertain future. Through striking visualizations, the connection between the past and present begins to blur, transforming Daisy into an almost mystical figure.
As this dynamic unfolds between the therapist and his intriguing patient, both find themselves caught in an unexpected and complicated attraction. With elements of fantasy, romance, and comedy, the story explores the quest for identity, self-acceptance, and the power of love across the ages. Ultimately, this cinematic work invites us to look beyond the obvious and find clarity amid the chaos of our lives.
