Female journalist Susan (played by Meryl Streep) interviews a "flower thief" who is frequently involved in lawsuits due to his love for orchids and his tendency to steal them, and turns his story into a biographical novel titled "The Orchid Thief." Soon, a Hollywood film company acquires the adaptation rights to the book and enlists the renowned adapter Charlie (played by Nicolas Cage) to turn it into a movie script. Unfortunately, Charlie has hit a creative wall and struggles to complete the adaptation of "The Orchid Thief." In desperation, he seeks help from the original author Susan, but the introverted Charlie becomes so nervous upon meeting the stunning and glamorous Susan that he can’t articulate his thoughts. He reluctantly calls upon his younger brother Donald, who is eager to get involved in screenwriting, to assist him. The brothers go through a series of twists and turns while revising the script. Charlie suddenly gets the idea to include the process of rewriting the script as part of the script itself. What will the final version of this script look like?
