A bearded director named EVA, a fictive Rainer Werner Fassbinder, lives in a large house with his cast and crew as he films Dumas' Lady of the Camellias. His accountant informs him he has many unpaid bills and little cash on hand. EVA throws a fit and fires him. He then proceeds to play one person off against another, dismiss with cruelty his recent lover Ali, sleep openly with his leading lady Gudrun, and make a direct and public play for his leading man, Walter. He's mercurial, dictatorial, and manic. Will he finish the film, having drawn great performances from his actors through his manipulations, or will his antics set events in motion that spin out of his control?
Después de haber engendrado un hijo ilegítimo con su amante, Marie, el soldado infeliz Franz Woyzeck toma trabajos ocasionales en su pequeño pueblo para proporcionarles dinero extra. Uno de ellos es voluntario para experimentos realizados por un médico local, que pone a Woyzeck en una dieta de guisantes. Esto sirve para llevarlo a la locura, y el descubrimiento de que Marie está involucrada en un romance con el tambor local mayor exacerba la situación. Empujado demasiado lejos, Woyzeck recurre a la violencia.
