Female journalist Susan (Meryl Streep) interviews a "flower thief" who is constantly in legal trouble for his obsession with orchids and his frequent orchid poaching, turning his story into the biographical novel "The Orchid Thief." Soon, a Hollywood film company buys the adaptation rights to the book and enlists the renowned adapter Charlie (Nicolas Cage) to turn it into a movie script. However, Charlie finds himself at a creative dead end, unable 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 in the presence of the stunning and elegant Susan that he can’t utter a word. He reluctantly calls in his younger brother Donald, who is eager to get involved in screenwriting, to assist him. The two brothers face a series of twists and turns while rewriting the script. Charlie has a sudden inspiration to include the process of adapting the script into the script itself. What will the final script become?
