Bernardo, un periodista romano que vive en Milán, frecuenta a un psicoanalista: su novia Adriana lo ha abandonado y vive sumido en la depresión. Al mismo tiempo, empieza a escribir una biografía de Jimi Hendrix con el propósito de averiguar la verdadera causa de su muerte. Durante las sesiones de psicoterapia conoce a Camilla, una actriz enamorada del psiquiatra, que, al igual que Bernardo, consume grandes dosis de antidepresivos y ansiolíticos. Entre ellos nace una profunda amistad que se convierte en amor cuando, después de una pelea, se encuentran por casualidad en Inglaterra, donde él busca noticias sobre Hendrix, y ella está de gira con un espectáculo.
