The story

The film describes a dispute between poet Else Lasker-Schüler and her publishers. The film takes place in Berlin before, during and after World War I. It deals with the rights of the author; quoting from Karl Marx: "a writer is judged as productive not on the amount of ideas he produces, but on the amount of money his publisher is able to profit from his works."
