Like the wife of King Arthur in the legend, the main character in Ginevra, actress Cecilia Linné, is a figure of inspiration torn between two worlds and two men. She gives up her “contract” with society and its entanglement of love, work and money.

Shortly after her divorce, a doctor from Munich sets out on a trip. With a mute lover at the wheel of an old Mercedes 180, she visits female friends and talks to them about their circumstances and their idea of ideal love.
