Sophie and Georg once loved each other, but now they have split up. Almost the entire film takes place in front of the same doorway in Berlin. In an elliptical way, the individual scenes portray a family for whom the word patchwork is the new normal — and take a laconic look at the everyday irrationalities of love.

Um pedaço de período abrangente e enérgico que traça a ascensão do Henrique Protestante de Navarra ao passar do guerreiro do campo de batalha para o amado rei Henri IV da França. O épico do diretor Jo Baier é uma aventura classicamente divertida, ainda que com mais do que um pequeno derramamento de sangue e freqüentes interlúdios sexuais obscenos. Na França do final do século XVI, católicos e protestantes huguenotes estavam em guerra. Aparentemente buscando a paz, a rainha viúva francesa, Catherine de Medici convoca Henry para sua corte para que ele se case com a filha, unindo as duas facções em guerra. No entanto, os católicos massacraram os convidados do casamento protestante no que ficou conhecido como o massacre do Dia de São Bartolomeu e Henrique - agora casado - deve usar toda a sua astúcia para se manter vivo e manobrar para o trono.
