The story

In 1955 Munich, Veronika Voss is a neurotic, faded UFA film star who is said to have slept with Joseph Goebbels but is now struggling to get roles. While riding the U-Bahn, she meets sports reporter Robert Krohn and is intrigued that he does not know who she is. The two have lunch together, and Veronika is recognized in a jewelry shop by two older women who ask for her autograph, and comment on the death of Veronika's husband during World War II.
