The 18th century Gentleman Tristram Shandy (Steve Coogan) is attempting to tell his life story, complete with excursions to other stories, in a film being made, starring Steve Coogan (Steve Coogan), directed by Mark (Jeremy Northam). The filming continues in chaotic parallel as Coogan grows increasingly insecure, journalists chase scandal, and the demands of filmmaking intrude on what is already a hectic story of Tristram and his dad Walter (Steve Coogan), an intellectually inclined and rather modern man who wants to take care of every aspect of his son's existence, from his birth onwards.
