Who doesn't know him, the impoverished country gentleman tilting at windmills? Don Quixote, who suffers so much from reality that he escapes into the world of his beloved chivalric romances and loses himself in this dream world. Equipped with his imagination as armor, his chivalric ideals as weapons, and his faithful squire Sancho Panza at his side, Don Quixote embarks on unknown adventures. He fights against imaginary enemies and illusions, but at his core, always for his true ideals. He is constantly searching for his equally imagined great love, Dulcinea, an ideal he projects onto all women. He actually helps the young Kitri escape a forced marriage and marry her true love. He survives all his adventures unscathed—until, at the end of his journey, he encounters his own reflection and recognizes his self-deception.

When a pilot is forced to make an emergency landing in the middle of the Sahara, he is astonished to find a little prince approaching him and asking him to draw a sheep. It quickly becomes clear that the little prince comes from a distant planet. He left after a quarrel with a rose and has been traveling through space ever since. He meets all sorts of inhabitants of other planets and learns about their longings, but feels like a stranger everywhere he goes. After a touching encounter with a fox who reveals a secret to him, it is time for the little prince to return home: to his planet with its three volcanoes and the rose he loves.

Village judge Adam finds himself in a predicament: the case of a broken jug is brought before him. The plaintiff, Marthe Rull, accuses Ruprecht, her daughter Eve's fiancé, of forcibly entering Eve's room and breaking the offending vessel. Ruprecht, in turn, claims to have caught a stranger red-handed, who escaped undetected by jumping out of the window. What no one suspects at first, however, is that the culprit is none other than Village Judge Adam himself. He had been harassing Eve the previous evening, was surprised by Ruprecht, and knocked over the fateful jug in his flight. What to do? Although Adam becomes increasingly entangled in his web of lies as the trial progresses, he brazenly tries to shift the blame onto himself until the very end…
