Issue de milieu modeste, la jeune Emma Eckhert commence sa carrière comme employée dans la chapellerie familiale. En 1921, elle connaît ses premiers ennuis avec la justice en même temps qu'elle scandalise son entourage par son homosexualité. Son mariage avec Moïse Nathanson, un ami de la famille plus âgé qu'elle, ne l'empêche ainsi pas de poursuivre sa liaison avec Camille Sowcroft, la fille d'un bijoutier, qui l'aide à s'enrichir en lui avançant de l'argent qu'Emma fait rapidement fructifier par d'astucieuses opérations boursières. En 1929, Emma est devenue l'une des banquières les plus appréciées de Paris. Mais sa fulgurante réussite lui attire entre autres l'antipathie du puissant banquier Horace Vannister, qui est une réplique du banquier Horace Finaly ; celui-ci intervient auprès du Président du Conseil Préfailles, qui est une réplique de Raymond Poincaré, pour faire interdire les activités d'Emma Eckhert, qui est une réplique de Marthe Hanau et la poursuivre en justice. Celle-ci finit par être assassinée au cours d'un meeting où elle expliquait aux épargnants qui lui avaient fait confiance, comment elle allait les rembourser.

Arthur Rimbaud, gravement malade et aux derniers jours de sa vie, revoit les faits marquants de son existence. Son enfance dans les Ardennes, puis Paris où il devient la tête de proue des poètes symbolistes, sa rencontre avec Paul Verlaine avec lequel il entretient une relation amoureuse. Après avoir vagabondé ensemble, entre France, Angleterre et Belgique, la blessure infligée à Arthur par le coup de revolver de Verlaine met fin à leur relation et amène Arthur à renoncer à la poésie, doutant qu'elle puisse avoir un effet sur le monde comme il l'avait espéré. Ayant traîné ses semelles aux quatre vents durant une demi-décennie, il va ensuite arpenter pendant dix ans les déserts africains entre Arabie et Abyssinie, devenant agent commercial d'une importante compagnie française. Il se livre notamment au trafic d'armes avec le ras Ménélik et entretient une liaison amoureuse avec Gennet, une Éthiopienne qui restera à ses côtés jusqu'à ce que, atteint d'une tumeur maligne au genou droit, il doive quitter l'Afrique pour aller se faire soigner en France. C'est durant ses derniers mois qu'Arthur exprimera des sentiments insoupçonnés : son amour pour la vie et ses inclinaisons pour le surnaturel.

The King (Jean Marais) promises his dying Queen that after her death he will only marry a woman as beautiful and virtuous as she. Pressed by his advisers to remarry and produce an heir, he comes to the conclusion that the only way to fulfil his promise is to marry his own daughter, the Princess (Catherine Deneuve). Following the advice of her godmother, the Lilac Fairy (Delphine Seyrig), the Princess demands a series of seemingly impossible nuptial gifts, in the hope that her father will be forced to give up his plans of marriage. However, the King succeeds in providing her with dresses the colour of the weather, of the moon and of the sun, and finally with the skin of a magic donkey that excretes jewels, the source of his kingdom's wealth. Donning the donkey skin, the Princess flees her father's kingdom to avoid the incestuous marriage.
