A French architect and a Polish photographer enjoy a love affair and meet regularly in Berlin for passionate weekends. Unable to decide whether they should start a steady relationship, they permanently break up with each other. The title is allegorical, in that West Berlin is named Laputa, the flying island that Jonathan Swift once wrote about.

Doctors say that Veronika, a woman in her 20s, is schizophrenic. She is compliant, which makes her an easy target for men. She's religious, believing she is God's favorite child; she searches for Jesus. She has sent a letter to a filmmaker suggesting her life as the subject for a movie. We see her raped than take up with a series of men she believes are Jesus, each willing or insistent on sex. A young man with his own crisis of faith invites her to join a cult. We see her involuntarily committed to an asylum from time to time where medication and constraints await. Her wealthy parents are helpless. Will a medical professional ever talk to her? If one did, would it help?

讲述了一名被共产党精英引诱的东德女子，在两个德国统一时必须重建自己生活的故事。
