The Immortal Story was Orson Welles' first film in colour. It starred Jeanne Moreau and was set entirely to the haunting music of Erik Satie.
In 1860s Macao, Mr Clay, a wealthy merchant asks his clerk to read to him when he is unable to sleep. When his clerk starts to read the scriptures, Clay objects, requesting a true story. As Clay himself begins to recount the tale of a sailor who was paid to sleep with a merchant's wife, he is shocked to learn that the story is actually a well-known urban legend, he resolves to make the story come true, no matter what the cost.
