The German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche and his Jewish companion Paul Ree meet a beautiful young Russian intellectual and draw her into a ménage-à-trois.

Using the example of 16-year-old, physically disabled Wolfgang, the film shows how non-disabled people can help a disabled person and what should be avoided. It also shows that the tense behavior on both sides is caused by fear and insecurity and that the disabled person can also do something wrong, i.e. is a completely normal person.
