Maria Enders and Jo-Ann Ellis play the leading roles in the play "Maloja Snake". As in the play itself, the two get entangled in a complicated network of relationships. Twenty years ago, Maria (Juliette Binoche) had taken on the role of Sigrid, a seductive young woman who exerts a very special fascination on her superior Helena and eventually drives her to suicide. In the new staging Maria is supposed to play the older Helena. Jo-Ann (Chloë Grace Moretz), a young, aspiring actress, will now take on the role of Sigrid. For text rehearsals, Maria goes to the mountains with her assistant Valentine (Kristen Stewart). Their previously fixed hierarchy is shaken and the boundaries between fiction and reality become blurred.
