The fabulous, enigmatic film star Fedora has committed suicide. At her lavish lying-in-state in Paris, Hollywood producer Barry Detweiler recalls how, two weeks before, he had travelled to Corfu in a desperate bid to lure the beautiful actress out of retirement. Although Fedora wants to reach out for the limelight again, she is held back by the sinister entourage with whom she lives in a fortified villa.
