Plot

A former model, Stephanie, is found murdered in her San Francisco apartment. Her boyfriend, Richard, whose body is also found at the scene, apparently killed her and then committed suicide. A photographer who worked closely with Stephanie decides to make a documentary about her life, a kind of memorial. She interviews those people closest to Stephanie, but she soon discovers that almost everything she’s been told about the crime is false, and everyone she interviews is lying. The circumstances surrounding Stephanie’s death become more and more contradictory and as the filmmaker struggles to find the truth she also realizes she may have played a frightening part in what happened to her friend.
