Cheung is employed to play the film-within-the-film's heroine, Irma Vep (an anagram for vampire), a burglar, who spends most of the film dressed in a tight, black, latex rubber catsuit, defending her director's odd choices to hostile crew members and journalists. As the film progresses, the plot mirrors the disorientation felt by the film's director. Cheung the character is in many ways seen by other characters as an exotic sex object dressed in a latex catsuit; both the director and Cheung's costume designer Zoe (Nathalie Richard) have crushes on her.

Ludovic, avocat de son métier, a deux filles nées de mères différentes, mais il n'en a élevé qu'une (Lise) et la considère comme sa fille unique; l'autre (Tina) vit avec sa mère (Nadine) avec qui Ludovic n'a vécu que brièvement et qui depuis, a eu d'autres hommes dans sa vie, dont un lui a fait deux autres enfants (actuellement en bas âge). Dans la scène initiale du film qui confronte Tina et Nadine, on comprend que celle-ci est dans un état psychologique instable (de type bipolaire). Sa fille semble même craindre qu'elle ne se suicide.

Gilles and Christine are attractive, sexually active teenagers from unstable homes. When they do some shop-lifting together she is arrested, but he gets away. She escapes from a mental institution and meets him at an abandoned house in the country, where a large group of rebellious teenagers are having a wild, all-night party. American rock music from the period is played prominently and has a very strong effect, especially "Me and Bobby McGee," sung by Janis Joplin. Drugs are used, mainly pot and hash. As the party is winding down, Gilles and Christine escape even deeper into the countryside, searching for a commune where artists are said to live without electricity or running water. This is Christine's idea, but Gilles reluctantly goes along. A jolting conclusion shows us that, as Assayas puts it, "Gilles' real life has now begun.
