En 1918, Karl et Richard sont prisonniers de guerre en Russie. Pour supporter leur souffrance quotidienne ils rêvent de chez eux : Richard parle tant de sa femme Anna qu’elle devient l’objet des fantasmes de Karl. Celui-ci parvient à s’échapper et, n’ayant personne qui l’attend en Allemagne, il retrouve Anna et se fait passer pour Richard. Si Anna sait que Karl n’est pas son mari, elle accueille l’étranger, sa tendresse, son amour. Les deux amants croient Richard mort et, quelque part, espèrent qu’il en est ainsi.

Abel Tiffauges (Malkovich) is a simple Frenchman at the start of World War II, who loves animals and children. The first part of the film recalls his childhood at a Catholic school for boys, in where he wishes to Saint Christopher that the school, which he sees as a prison, is burned down. By irony of fate, while Abel is being disciplined for spilling lamp oil on the chapel floor, his friend Nestor accidentally sets fire to the building, burning it down as he wished. From that day on, Abel is convinced that fate is on his side, and that it will protect him from anything.
