Élevé dans un milieu très populaire et violent, incompris tant par un père alcoolique et rustre (Grégory Gadebois) que par une mère dépassée (Catherine Salée), le jeune Marvin Bijoux (Jules Porier) pâtit d'une différence qui le rend marginal et en fait le souffre-douleur de son frère et de ses camarades d'école. Grâce à la principale du collège (Catherine Mouchet), Marvin découvre le théâtre et finit par imposer son choix d'entrer au Conservatoire pour s'adonner à cette passion. Marvin fuit ainsi sa famille et son village des Vosges. En changeant d'identité et en devenant Martin Clément, grâce au théâtre, il va pouvoir s'assumer et s'épanouir. Devenu adulte (Finnegan Oldfield), à Paris, ses rencontres avec un metteur en scène au parcours similaire (Vincent Macaigne), un homosexuel flambeur (Charles Berling) et la grande Isabelle Huppert, avec laquelle il se produit sur scène, vont l'aider à façonner son propre destin.

In the 1960s Polish People's Republic, Anna, a young novice nun, is told by her prioress that before she takes her vows she must visit her aunt, Wanda Gruz, who is her only surviving relative. Anna travels to visit her aunt Wanda, a chain-smoking, hard-drinking, sexually promiscuous judge who reveals that Anna's actual name is Ida Lebenstein. Ida's parents had been Jews who were murdered late in the German occupation of Poland during World War II (1939–45). Ida was then an infant, and as an orphan she'd been raised by the convent. Wanda, who'd been a Communist resistance fighter against the German occupation, had become the state prosecutor "Red Wanda" who sent "men to their deaths". Wanda's role alludes to "the political show trials of the early 1950s, when Poland’s Communist government used judicial terror (among other methods) to consolidate its power and eliminate its enemies.

They then kidnap nine young men and nine young women and take them to a palace near Salò. Accompanying them are four middle-aged prostitutes, also collaborators, who recount arousing stories for the men, who sadistically exploit their victims.
