Clarence is an actor auditioning for a part in a play. On stage, she embodies the role so vividly that the set seems to carry the imprint of her imagination. Tantum depicts her urgent desire to attain perfection and the doubts that plague her as she internalizes her role. Her most visceral sensations are felt by the viewer as the film keenly evokes the compulsive psychology of the character. An unsettling atmosphere reflects the dilemmas of an artist who takes her work extremely seriously.
