A love story or a tale of the resistance, this poignant movie tells both the haunting story of a French resistance cell in Lyon but also the love of Lucie Aubrac for her husband...

The movie depicts the events from July until September of 1914 which led to the defeat of the German troops at the Marne. While Sebastian Haffner explains and comments on operations and decisions on the basis of situation maps, key scenes are depicted by actors. A main focus is thereby placed by Haffner onto the controversial mission of lieutenant-colonel Richard Hentsch who is said to have, during a war patrol to the various army high commands, contributed to the abortion of the operations significantly.

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful but proud princess, and seven suitors from all the kingdoms sought her hand in marriage. But all seven were mocked and rejected by the stubborn princess. When the king finally grew weary of her vanity, he gave her in marriage to the first minstrel who sang outside the castle gates. And so the once-spoiled princess must leave the castle and live in poverty with her new husband. Her delicate hands are now forced to learn all manner of crafts, and to earn a living, the minstrel eventually sends her to work in the royal kitchen. There, in the castle of the young king—whom she once mockingly called "Thrushbeard"—a grand feast is being celebrated. The princess still cannot guess what secret the minstrel has kept from her all along!

When his advisors urged him to remarry, he ordered a search throughout the land for a woman whose beauty matched that of his late queen. A young woman is brought before him, but she will not become his bride unless he gives her three precious gowns: one as golden as the sun, one as silvery as the moon, and one as sparkling as the stars. When the king fulfills these impossible tasks, however, she demands one final gift: a cloak made of a thousand kinds of fur! But no sooner is this wish granted than she hides herself, wearing the fur cloak, unrecognized by the world and the king, as his kitchen maid. And so she puts his love to one final test!
