Overview

Charlie Kaufman is a confused L.A. screenwriter overwhelmed by feelings of inadequacy, sexual frustration, self-loathing, and by the screenwriting ambitions of his freeloading twin brother Donald.

The lives of Kaufman and Orlean's book become strangely intertwined as each one's search for passion collides with the other's.
