Directed by Edgar Reitz

With Edgar Selge, Aenne Schwarz, Lars Eidinger, Michael Kranz and Antonia Bill

Out of her love for the great thinker Leibniz, Queen Charlotte commissions a portrait of him. During the portrait sessions, the philosopher and the young painter engage in a passionate struggle for truth in image and likeness, and ultimately for love and death.
