艾瑟（蒂尔·施威格 Til Schweiger 饰）长相英俊个性讨喜，唯一的缺点就是太花心。有一天，艾瑟正在自己工作的餐厅同相识没多久的女客人偷换，正巧被同事兼同居女友多罗（卡嘉·瑞曼 Katja Riemann 饰）逮了个正着，这下可好了，不仅女友红颜大怒，艾瑟也失去了唯一的住所。 　　无奈之中，艾瑟的朋友将艾瑟带到了诺伯（约阿希姆·科尔 Joachim Król 饰）家，诺伯是一名同性恋者，资质平平的他在圈内并不吃香。对于艾瑟的到来，诺伯显得十分热情，他不仅在生活上对艾瑟无微不至，更是常常温暖艾瑟孤独的内心。随着时间的推移，竟然有火花在两人之间闪烁，就在两人欲干柴烈火之时，多罗又一次的“碰巧”出现在了他们的面前。

　　This is a very bizarre fairy tale. It commences with a wedding and singing and dancing but nearly the whole village is wiped out by wolves. The bride gives birth to a daughter several months later and promises her to the boy who saved her.　　Ten years later there is another disruption when Some circus folk come by and the villagers trick them into staying. Tragedy ensues...　　This has a strange cast, dwarfs, giants, priests and occasional intrusions from the modern world in the form of the police and a wonderer who returns bringing to the village the good news of Nostradamus. It is a long film but it honestly does not drag. and if you get bored of the plot you can always look at the sumptuous Countryside.
