In 2015, Jeffrey Alan Lash — who claims to be half human and half alien and works for the US Secret Service — is found dead in his car. Millions of dollars in weapons, ammunition, and cash are discovered in his garage. Fascinated by this event, a man flies to Los Angeles to investigate this mysterious individual. Crossing paths with the other skeptics who have gravitated towards Lash, he gradually discovers the multiple identities of the scheming fabulator. With help from interpreter Evelyne de la Chenelière, director Florent Siaud creates a hallucinatory thriller which reminds us that the powers of fiction are more fascinating and disturbing than ever in a world in constant flux.
