It is the moving story of a dramatic love affair and at the same time a document of epochal art: at the beginning of the 20th century, Berlin-born Gabriele Münter lives and paints with her great love, the Russian Wassily Kandinsky, in the Bavarian town of Murnau am Staffelsee. The province became the starting point for an artistic awakening to modernism that revolutionized painting and the understanding of art and gave rise to the loose artist movement Der Blaue Reiter.
The film atmospherically traces the life and love story of Münter and Kandinsky: The young painting student who falls in love with the teacher who is almost eleven years her senior. Their life together while traveling and in the Blue Land, which became a source of inspiration for their painting and made them pioneers of their time. Their artistically productive, but privately rather fatal relationship, which caused Münter to become increasingly desperate and Kandinsky to become increasingly disgruntled.
