The story of Empress Elisabeth of Austria told from the point of view of her lady-in-waiting, Irma Sztáray.

In no less than 180 minutes the film showed frenzied dashes of wild colors and idyllic natural images, of wonderful music and powerful lyricism, which, among others was flawlessly recited by star actors such as Corinna Harfouch, Angela Winkler and Ulrich Matthes. The work treats of the consciousness-defining echoing thunder of modern rock music, of the rock inscriptions of the ancient Egyptians, of the Merseburg magic spells, the author’s childhood impressions, in the latter’s homeland in the forests of the Upper Palatinate, and the ghosts of the Nazi era, who today continue to haunt us in the most vivid manner.

Director Leon de Winter has taken a thriller with political and psychological overtones, and scrambled it into a series of vignettes that are mixed-up in time and in location, thereby dashing any hope of following the story. A journalist goes to a southern European country to interview a well-known terrorist who has refused to stop his activities even though the revolution he fought for ended successfully five years earlier. Questions are raised about adopting violence as a way of life without at first realizing it and about the seeming impossibility of raising the consciousness of backwater cultures. Perhaps because of the way the story has been filleted into fragments, characters like the journalist and terrorist do not have enough continuous screen time to build up their individuality, a second factor that makes it difficult to become involved in the drama.

Edith runs a left-wing journal and when her marriage starts to fall apart (her husband is unfaithful), she can find no solace in her son who is more of a problem than an asset. On top of heading toward a divorce and being unable to handle her son's asocial tendencies, her neurotic uncle moves in, demanding personalized care. Just to keep her sanity intact, Edith starts writing in her diary to vent her own feelings and ambitions. As her son goes from bad to worse over a five-year period, it turns out that Edith's diary may be of more benefit than she could have ever imagined. In this adaptation of Edith's Diary by Patricia Highsmith, director and writer Hans W. Geissendoerfer has maintained Highsmith's psychologically tormented characters while changing the location and time of her story from the U.S. of the 1960s to Germany in the early 1980s.

Ruth seems crushed between her husband and her friend, and how she responds is the film's climax.

프랑스 혁명이 민중혁명의 국면에 접어들고 과거 혁명세력이 주도권을 잡은 이후, 로베스 삐에르의 공포정치가 혁명을 압도하는상황을 배경으로 하고 있다. 이때 벌어지는 당통과 로베스 삐에르의 대립은 정치적, 이념적 갈등, 그리고 혁명의 자기파괴적 달레마와 모순의 문제를 내포한 것이다. 당통은 로베스 삐에르가 혁명의 이름으로 혁명을 파괴하고, 또한 독재를 경계한다고 하면서도 실제로 독재로 가고 있다고 공격한다. 따라서 국민의 적은바로 혁명정부이며, 이 정부를 이끄는 공공안전위원회의 테러리즘과 전체주의가 혁명을 배반하는 것이라 비난한다. 반면 로베스 삐에르는 중산 계급을 중심으로 시민의 우상이 되고 있는 당통을 처형한 후에 남는 것은 오로지 공포정치 밖에 없음을 알면서도, 당통에 대한 재판에 질 경우 혁명은 끝이 난다는 위기감 때문에 당통은 반혁명자로 처형할 것을 결심하기에 이른다. 당통은 관용과 평화와 정의를 주장하는 자신의 희생이 마침내 민중의눈을 뜨게할 것이라 스스로 믿고 처형 후에 자신의 잘려진 머리를 민중드르에게 보여줄 것을 당부하였지만 민중은 그의 뜻에 따르지 않았다. 로베스 삐에르는 그의 처형 순간 혁명이 잘못돼가고 있음을 자인하지만....
