Nine is the story of celebrated Italian director Guido Contini (Daniel Day-Lewis) as he struggles to make his next film – Italia. Set to begin shooting in ten days, Guido has no script, no story, no ideas. As the project crumbles around him, he looks to the seven women in his life. Ultimately, it is when they have all abandoned him that he finds the creative inspiration he was looking for.
