Einer der Größten des Kinos, vielleicht der größte Regisseur seiner Epoche: Zur Machtergreifung dreht G.W. Pabst in Frankreich; vor den Gräueln des neuen Deutschlands flieht er nach Hollywood. Aber unter der blendenden Sonne Kaliforniens sieht der weltberühmte Regisseur mit einem Mal aus wie ein Zwerg. Nicht einmal Greta Garbo, die er unsterblich gemacht hat, kann ihm helfen. Und so findet Pabst sich, fast wie ohne eigenes Zutun, in seiner Heimat Österreich wieder, die nun Ostmark heißt.

Story22
Gegen Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts machen sich zwei junge Deutsche an die Vermessung der Welt. Der eine, Alexander von Humboldt, kämpft sich durch Urwald und Steppe, befährt den Orinoko, kostet Gifte, zählt Kopfläuse, kriecht in Erdlöcher, besteigt Vulkane und begegnet Seeungeheuern und Menschenfressern. Der andere, der Mathematiker und Astronom Carl Friedrich Gauß, der sein Leben nicht ohne Frauen verbringen kann und doch in der Hochzeitsnacht aus dem Bett springt, um eine Formel zu notieren.

Story0
Viele Jahre schon hat sich der Physiker David Mahler mit dem Problem der Zeit beschäftigt, mit der Frage, ob ihre Richtung wirklich unveränderlich ist oder sich nicht doch etwas finden ließe, das ihren Lauf umkehrt, als er eines Nachts im Traum eine Entdeckung macht. Am nächsten Morgen hält er einen Stoß beschriebener Blätter in den Händen, die das älteste Gesetz der Natur in Frage stellen und damit die Grundfesten der Welt. Mahler will seiner ungeheuren Entdeckung Gehör verschaffen, aber das gestaltet sich ausgesprochen schwierig.
