Paris, 6 juillet 1815. Le peuple français est inquiet pour son avenir : Napoléon ayant été vaincu à Waterloo, le pays se retrouve sans dirigeant. Talleyrand, ancien ministre des Affaires étrangères, invite à dîner dans son hôtel Fouché, ancien ministre de la Police et actuel chef du gouvernement provisoire, pour en discuter et choisir un nouveau souverain pour la France. Commence alors un long duel verbal entre les deux hommes : Talleyrand pense qu'il faut revenir à la monarchie et mettre Louis XVIII sur le trône, Fouché hésite car il a autrefois voté l’exécution de Louis XVI et craint que son frère Louis XVIII le lui fasse payer. Fouché propose tour à tour Napoléon II, Louis Philippe d'Orléans ou le retour à la république mais Talleyrand reste campé sur sa position. La joute tourne au règlement de comptes lorsque chacun commence à évoquer les crimes que l'autre a commis pour gravir les échelons.

Paris, January 1942. France is occupied by the Nazis. Robert Klein, apparently apolitical, is a well-to-do art dealer, Roman Catholic and Alsatian by birth, who takes advantage of French Jews who need to sell artworks to raise cash to leave the country. One day, the local Jewish newspaper, addressed to him, is delivered to his home. He learns that another Robert Klein who has been living in Paris, a Jew sought by the police, has had his mail forwarded to him in an apparent attempt to destroy his social reputation and make him a target of official anti-Semitism. He reports this to the police who remain suspicious that he may be reporting this scheme to disguise his own true identity. His own investigations lead him in contradictory directions, to Klein who lives in a slum while having an affair with his concierge and to Klein who visits a palatial country estate where he has seduced an apparently Jewish married woman. When the art dealer cannot locate the other Klein, authorities require him to offer proof of his French heritage. While waiting for the documentation to arrive, he struggles to track down his namesake and learn his motivation. Before he can resolve the situation by either means, he is caught up in the July 1942 roundup of Parisian Jews. He is reunited with Jews who once were his clients as they board boxcars for Germany.
