Initiated by producer-director Pierre Drouot, Woody Allen for the very first time agrees to let a filmmaker, Belgium's André Delvaux, film him during one of his own productions, Stardust Memories. Woody talks about his work, always steering clear of the anecdotal or the private.

The title of this documentary short refers to its three important elements: the personal tone (subjective narration), a story about a family of Roma origin, and Woody Allen, a highly-reputed filmmaker from an earlier generation whose subjectivity, American Jewish origins and family-related themes are equally important in his works.
