Flavie est une animatrice de télévision réputée. Un soir qu’elle s’apprête à enregistrer une émission, elle est terrassée par un malaise comme elle en a régulièrement depuis que son grand-père est mort, quelques semaines plus tôt. Après avoir consulté divers « spécialistes » (sophrologue, naturopathe, podologue, chiropracteur) et fait le constat qu’elle ne souffre de rien sur le plan médical, elle finit par consulter un psychothérapeute, lequel, ayant rapidement diagnostiqué une « disjonction émotionnelle » consécutive au décès du grand-père, explique à sa patiente ce qu’est l’ « amnésie traumatique » et l’invite à apporter lors des séances suivantes des photos d’elle enfant, pour aller ensemble à la recherche du « trauma » qu’il soupçonne d’être à l’origine de ses crises d’angoisse et des flashs dont elles s’accompagnent. À partir de là, le film fait alterner les séances de thérapie (il y en aura cinq, échelonnées sur plusieurs mois) avec sept séquences, beaucoup plus développées, qui présentent des moments de la vie de l’adolescente situés entre sa treizième et sa seizième années et qu’elle se remémore en feuilletant ses albums de photos. Mais ce travail de remémoration, répétitif et infructueux, finit par lasser et décourager Flavie, qui envisage de mettre fin à la thérapie. C’est alors qu’un incident fortuit — la chute d’une photo prise au polaroïd — fait soudain remonter du tréfonds de sa mémoire le souvenir, longtemps occulté, du viol commis sur elle, l’été de ses treize ans, par le célèbre photographe David Hamilton.

In a brief scene in 1964, an aging, overweight Italian American, Jake LaMotta (Robert De Niro), practices a comedy routine. The rest of the film then occurs in flashback. In 1941, LaMotta is in a major boxing match against Jimmy Reeves, where he received his first loss. Jake's brother Joey LaMotta (Joe Pesci) discusses a potential shot for the middleweight title with one of his Mafia connections, Salvy Batts (Frank Vincent). Some time thereafter, Jake spots a 15-year-old girl named Vickie (Cathy Moriarty) at an open-air swimming pool in his Bronx neighborhood. He eventually pursues a relationship with her, even though he is already married. In 1943, Jake defeats Sugar Ray Robinson, and has a rematch three weeks later. Despite the fact that Jake dominates Robinson during the bout, the judges surprisingly rule in favor of Robinson and Joey feels Robinson won only because he was enlisting into the US Army the following week. By 1947, Jake marries Vickie.
