The film is set in Vienna on June 9, 1804, the date of the private, first performance of Beethoven’s third symphony, later to be known as the ‘Eroica’. The performance, and most of the action in the film, takes place at the palace of one of Beethoven’s patrons, Prince Franz Lobkowitz. Midway during the performance, Beethoven tries to get his lover, a widow named Josephine von Deym, to marry him, but she refuses because of the unfair laws regarding child custody — she is a member of the nobility, and cannot marry a commoner without losing custody of her children. Later, composer Joseph Haydn, now old and feeble, arrives just in time to hear the last movement of the symphony.

Le film est accompagné par une narration en voix off ; les personnages eux-mêmes ne parlent pratiquement pas. Achille est attiré depuis longtemps par son compagnon d'armes Patrocle sans bien s'en rendre compte. Lorsque le prince troyen Pâris enlève Hélène, reine de Sparte, Achille et Patrocle se joignent à l'armée conduite par Agamemnon et Ménélas pour assiéger Troie et réclamer Hélène. Achille est le meilleur héros des Achéens. Patrocle est attiré par lui, mais Achille repousse d'abord ses avances. Tous deux incarnent Pâris et Hélène dans une représentation théâtrale relatant les événements à l'origine de la guerre ; mais au cours de la représentation, Achille se rend compte que Patrocle l'attire.
