Bertrand Tavernier directs this sci-fi drama based on David Compton's novel 'The Continuous Katherine Mortenhoe'. When terminally ill Katherine (Romy Schneider) refuses to be filmed during her last days for reality TV show 'Death Watch', reporter Roddy (Harvey Keitel) has a camera inserted in his brain and, at producer Vincent (Harry Dean Stanton)'s instruction, begins to capture an intimate portrayal of the dying woman. As time passes Rodney becomes more sympathetic towards Katherine's situation.
