Sebastian Zöllner, jeune critique d'art ambitieux mais dans une situation très précaire, convainc son éditeur de lui financer un voyage pour aller rencontrer Manuel Kaminski, un peintre dont la renommée égalait les plus grands artistes du XX siècle et qui vit reclus dans les Alpes depuis qu'il est devenu aveugle. Zöllner fait le pari que vu l'âge très avancé de Kaminski, ce dernier n'a forcément plus longtemps encore à vivre. Il a l'ambition d'écrire sa biographie dont la sortie coïnciderait avec le décès de Kaminski, ce qui lui permettrait d'atteindre la gloire et la fortune...

Martha Klein (Martina Gedeck) is a chef at Lido, a gourmet restaurant in Hamburg, Germany. A perfectionist who lives only for her work, Martha has difficulty relating to the world other than through food. Her single-minded obsession with her culinary craft occasionally leads to unpleasant confrontations with customers. Consequently, the restaurant owner, Frida (Sibylle Canonica), requires her to see a therapist (August Zirner) to work out her poor interpersonal skills. Martha's therapy sessions, however, turn into monologues on food, and her approach to stress management usually involves briefly retreating to the restaurant's walk-in refrigerator.
