Filmmaker Viktor Taransky (Pacino) finds his career in jeopardy when the lead actress (Ryder) of his latest film abruptly drops out. His ex-wife, studio head Elaine Christian (Keener), fires him and leaves him disillusioned with the entire business.
Then Viktor meets a dying computer genius that helps him create a computer-generated actress to replace his temperamental leading lady. The new starlet, Simone (Roberts), is beautiful, obedient and enormously popular with the public. As Viktor is catapulted back to the frontlines of moviemaking, he decides to keep Simone's CGI secret to himself. Eventually, he decides to retire Simone before the public finds that she's a fraud. However, putting an ending her career will be harder than he thinks.
