Film in which I perform, making a comeback (4)

I believe the answer is:

gigi

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'film' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'i perform making a comeback' is the wordplay.
'perform making' becomes 'gig' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'a comeback' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'i'+'gig'='igig'
'igig' backwards is 'GIGI'.

'in which' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
