Comme Joséphine ne peut pas donner un héritier à Napoléon, Talleyrand, conseiller politique de Napoléon, fait tout son possible pour la convaincre que le divorce est inévitable. L'empereur a absolument besoin d'un fils. Joséphine a à cette époque 47 ans et souffre beaucoup d'avoir à se séparer de son mari. Après la prononciation du divorce, Metternich, qui contrôle le destin de l'Autriche, reçoit une lettre de Talleyrand.

A documentary-like opening introduces a death chamber where an execution is about to take place. Inexplicably, the man to be executed, an ethnic Korean known only as R, survives hanging but loses his memory. The officials who witness the hanging debate how to proceed, as the law could be interpreted as forbidding execution of an individual who does not recognize their crime and its punishment.
