He is to be interviewed for feminist scholar Susan Henry's new book. But no sooner does the interview begin, figures from his past - his rebellious daughter Anne, his uncle Sigmund Freud, US presidents, and a fascist propagandist - return to haunt him. As Anne and her rotating wardrobe of characters vie for control of both the interview and the show, the cracks in Eddie's own image begin to emerge, and he is forced to grapple with the reality of his own legacy…
