Биографический фильм о хирурге и городском враче в Хайльбронне Юлиусе Роберте Майере (1814-1878), который много лет изучал тепло и был первым, кто правильно сформулировал основные принципы теории механического тепла и принцип сохранения энергии. Конкурирующие прусские учёные смеются над ним, а его жизнь полна недоразумений и преследований. Фильм, посвящён памяти этого великого немецкого натуралиста, рассказывает о его судьбе, а также о его долгой и тщетной борьбе за признание результатов его научной работы.
