8½
At the pinnacle of his career, film director Guido Anselmi finds himself creatively dry. Anselmi is advised by his physicians to rest, so he travels to a nice resort, but his producer, crew, performers, wife, mistress, and relatives all beg him to continue with the performance. In order to escape their dependence, he fantasizes about prior ladies and recalls childhood dreams.
