A sports photographer in rural Canada sends a picture of a high school athlete, Tina Menzhal, to a Montrèal fashion agency. This starts Tina on a career taking her from Canada to Paris to Montrèal again, to Manhattan, to the world, and then home, through two boyfriends, two husbands, and innumerable TV interviews, either with nasty smiling scandalmongers or with gushing witless twits. In nearly every case, Tina never gets to finish a sentence. She has a suave agent, paparazzi are everywhere ("What the celebs forget, there's always a camera," says one), and a documentary filmmaker is on hand as well. What is it that Tina thinks, feels, and wants: will we ever find out?
