Wes Anderson co-writes and directs this comedy drama centred on a group of American journalists based in post-war France. The film features three stories told by different reporters for the supplement magazine for the Kansas Evening Sun newspaper run by Arthur Howitzer Jr. (Bill Murray).
The first story, covered by J.K.L. Berensen (Tilda Swinton), takes place in prison where murderer Moses Rosenthaler (Benicio Del Toro) grows increasingly infatuated with prison guard Simone (Léa Seydoux). To demonstrate his feelings, Moses paints an abstract nude of her which piques the interest of art dealer Julien Cadazio (Adrien Brody).
In the second segment, reporter Lucinda Krementz (Frances McDormand) covers the student revolutions taking place on the streets of Ennui, where she profiles self-proclaimed leader Zeffirelli (Timothée Chalamet). In the third segment, food critic Roebuck Wright (Jeffrey Wright) recalls the private dinner he attended with the hierarchy of the Ennui police forces which was overshadowed by the kidnapping of the Commissaire (Mathieu Amalric)'s son.
