Historia de una ninfómana contada por ella misma. Una fría noche invernal, un viejo solterón (Stellan Skarsgård) encuentra en un callejón a una joven (Charlotte Gainsbourg) herida y casi inconsciente. Después de recogerla y cuidarla, siente curiosidad por saber cómo pudo haber llegado esa mujer a semejante situación; escucha atentamente el relato que ella hace de su vida, una vida llena de conflictos y turbias relaciones. Para su estreno comercial se dividirá en dos partes. Hay una versión completa de cinco horas y media que sólo se verá en ciertos actos culturales.
It´s 1973, the scene is New York, there´s a strange virus, a penis transplant, a saw and a stick of leeks: Adam is not successful with women and has a rather tiny penis, but his friend Dick is a very successfull lover, owning "the largest cock in town". When Dick suddenly dies of the virus, Adam sees his chance for a better genital area. But does the shady Dr. Cockburn really know what he's doing? Why does poor Adam change into a sex maniac? Originally a stage play by Jörg Buttgereit, has this been photographed for the screen by Thilo Gosejohann, formally based on a radio play by Jörg Buttgereit.
Hiroshima, Japan: A giant monster attacks a fishing boat and devours the crew. Frankenstein expert Russ Adams and radiation researcher Takako Mizuno are suspicious. Does this have anything to do with the radioactively mutated creature they raised years ago and that had been swallowed by an earthquake? Could a new being have developed from its cell remains, one that is so closely connected to nature in the depths of the sea, that it now regards humans as a natural enemy? A lively, experimantal mix between stage play, radio play and Japanese monster movie unfolds.
