With her widower father currently living it up in Paris with a young, new girlfriend, Lilian (Van Patten) has been placed into the care of family friends over in Brooklyn, New York. Under the roof of famed author, Julia Price (Mortimer), Lilian has no real motivation to live any other lifestyle than that of her hermit housemate. To impress her ex-boyfriend, and the other cynics around her, Lilian suddenly decides to make a documentary on Julia - albeit, an unauthorized one - with the help of some new people in her life. 　　译文(2): 由于她的鳏夫父亲目前正和一个年轻的新女友在巴黎过着奢侈的生活，莉莉安(范佩顿饰)已经被安置在纽约布鲁克林的家庭朋友的照顾之下。在著名作家朱莉娅 · 普莱斯(莫蒂默饰)的屋檐下，莉莉安除了她那位隐士室友的生活方式之外，没有过其他生活方式的真正动力。为了给她的前男友和周围其他愤世嫉俗的人留下深刻印象，莉莉安突然决定制作一部关于茱莉亚的纪录片——尽管是一部未经授权的纪录片——在她生命中的一些新人的帮助下。
