Personal physician to Queen Victoria, also physician to the Swedish royal family (he spent his last years living in the Royal Palace in Sweden), "Axel Munthe" knew everyone from the poorest clients to the most well-endowed. His love of animals, his support of bird sanctuaries, his involvement with architecture as he constructs his impressive villa throughout five summers, and his interests in archaeology and hypnotism are all explored.

Reinhold Schünzel is one of the most sought-after actors and directors of cinema of the Weimar Republic. When the National Socialists come to power in 1933, he just releases his legendary gender comedy “Viktor and Victoria“. Despite his Jewish faith, Schünzel is under the special protection of Hitler and can work unhindered due to a special permit. But Schünzel's days in Germany are also numbered. In his sparkling and pointed artist portrait, director Hans-Christoph Blumenberg tells about the rise and fall of Reinhold Schünzel. The grandiose Peter Fitz mimes a charming, witty and ambitious director. By letting some performers play several roles, Blumenberg cleverly illustrates the recurring conditions with which Reinhold Schünzel faces everywhere. Schünzel's irony, language joke and sophistication in particular congenially transfers Blumenberg to his film.

In this hilarious opera parody, Loriot delivers a comedic take on the pretentiousness of the operatic world. The plot revolves around a fictional opera production that spirals into absurdity as egos clash, misunderstandings abound, and everything goes hilariously wrong. Through a series of farcical and exaggerated situations, Loriot brilliantly mocks the pomp and circumstance of opera while showcasing his signature dry humor and love for absurdity.
