On the Berlin subway, university student Cheryl gets off at her stop in the deserted subway station and is pursued by a mysterious, masked man. Rather than attacking her, the man offers her tickets to a free screening at the Metropol, an isolated and recently renovated local cinema. Cheryl talks her friend Kathy into going with her and they skip class to go see the film. At the crowded theater, they meet two preppy college boys, George and Ken, who take an immediate liking to the girls and help them get a can of cola out of the vending machine. The four sit together in the theater.

The plot involves a near invincible man known as Mikos, a Greek citizen who was given a healing factor and driven insane by church-sanctioned scientific experimentation. A priest pursues Mikos to a town in America, and attempts to destroy him by impaling him on a set of railings which disembowel him, but he is revived later in a local hospital. The madman escapes after brutally murdering a nurse, and goes on a killing spree. The priest informs the hospital and authorities that the only way to kill Mikos is to 'destroy the cerebral mass'.

Le film évoque les derniers jours de Marie-Antoinette d'Autriche interprétée par Ute Lemper, de son procès à son exécution. Il fut tourné lors des célébrations du bicentenaire de la Révolution française. Sur un scénario d'Alain Decaux et d'André Castelot reposant sur les minutes du procès de la reine, L'Autrichienne est en grande partie un huis clos (scènes du procès, et à la Conciergerie), ponctué de séquences en flash-back.

The story, drawn from La masseria delle allodole, the best-selling novel by Antonia Arslan, tells about the Avakian clan, an Armenian family living in Turkey and having two houses. The Avakians feel convinced that the rising tide of Turkish hostility on the horizon means little to them and will scarcely affect their day to day. The Avakians do not pay attention to the warning signs, and set about preparing for a family reunion with the impending visit of two well-to-do sons - landowner Aram, who resides in Turkey, and Assadour, a physician living in Venice. These illusions come crashing down when a Turkish military regiment crops up at the house, annihilates every male member of the family and forces the ladies to trek off into the Syrian desert, where they will be left to rot. With them goes one of the little boys of the family, who was dressed into a girl in order not to be killed. Meanwhile, a handsome Turkish officer (Moritz Bleibtreu) falls in love with Aram's daughter and makes an aggressive attempt to deliver her from certain death, even as the circumstances surrounding him attest to the astounding difficulty of doing so.

Venise, hiver 1943. La Résistance italienne prépare un attentat contre le siège de la Kommandantur allemande. Un homme - Renato Braschi, inspiré du personnage historique Otello Pighin - surnommé l'Ingénieur y joue un rôle déterminant... Bien que « l'explosion soit meurtrière, l'acte, en définitive, doit être considéré comme une réussite relative : une prostituée vénitienne y laisse la vie tandis que le commandant en réchappe ; et le lendemain, les autorités réagissent en menaçant de fusiller des otages. » (Freddy Buache in: Le cinéma italien 1945-1990, Éditions L'Âge d'Homme)
