Berlin, 1939. Joseph Goebbels, ministre de la propagande nazie, commandite un film qui, selon lui, doit présenter un haut niveau artistique tout en instruisant le peuple allemand contre la « juiverie ». Il choisit l'acteur de second rang d'origine autrichienne Ferdinand Marian pour interpréter le rôle-titre du film Jud Süss, rôle qui doit véhiculer tous les poncifs antisémites. Marian, initialement très réticent, accepte finalement le rôle. Grâce au succès du film, il devient malgré lui une vedette du cinéma du IIIe Reich. Mais la chute du régime entraîne aussi la fin de sa carrière et l'éclatement de sa famille car il restera irrémédiablement associé au plus grand film de propagande nazie.

There Nannerl develops a friendship with 13-year-old Princess Louise of France, who is being brought up in the Abbey, along with two of her sisters.

Princess Louise enters a convent and urges Nannerl to stay away from the Dauphin who is struggling to avoid the debauchery of his father, King Louis XV. A bizarre final encounter with the Dauphin and his new wife ensues. Nannerl and Princess Louise reflect on how their fates would have differed had they been born male.
