Главный герой фильма носит имя Симон Синема. Симону около ста лет, и он является фанатично преданным синематографу веселым стариканом-бонвиваном. Он живет в старинном шато, доверху наполненном всем, что имеет отношение к кино - старыми фотографиями актеров, журналами, афишами, пленками. К ста годам память его начинает слабеть, и он нанимает хорошенькую студенточку Камиллу, чтобы она рассказывала ему разные истории про кино: и пересказывала фильмы в течение сто и одной ночи. Но это только начало истории. Шехерезада оказывается, как ей и положено, коварной. Вместе с дружком Микой, начинающим режиссером, который считает себя талантливее всех, но не имеет денег снимать фильм, она решает выкрасть у старика его кинематографические сокровища, продать их, а на вырученные деньги запустить Микино кино.
