Synopsis
The plot follows Sandy Bates (played by Allen), a renowned filmmaker known for his comedic work, who is experiencing a mid-life crisis and artistic block.

Bates attends a weekend film festival retrospective of his work at the Stardust Hotel, where he is plagued by fans, studio demands, and memories of his past and present relationships.
