故事的讲述者——一位乡村教师回忆起一战前夕，德国北部某村庄里的一系列离奇往事。医生骑马回家的时候被绳索绊倒受伤，人们马上展开调查的同时，牧师对两名晚归的孩子施以体罚，并为孩子们系上了象征纯洁的白丝带。第二天，一名佃农的妻子因事故身亡，乡村教师在河边发现男孩马丁在高处行走，马丁声称想知道上帝是否要惩罚他。教师与男爵家的保姆伊娃相识，彼此留下了良好印象。不久男爵主持了丰收典礼，身亡农妇的儿子认为男爵对母亲的死有责任遂破坏了男爵的菜园泄愤。所有这些恶性事件可能的始作俑者迟迟没有调查出来，纵火和针对儿童的毒打仍然发生。第二年费迪南大公遇刺之后，教师似乎发现了一些线索，但却被牧师强硬的制止。 　　本片获2009年戛纳电影节金棕榈奖、影评人费比西奖。

　　Star, a suicidal teen now too old for foster care, develops a candid rapport with An, a student from Shanghai who is assigned to watch her while she is in hospital. A nightly exchange of secrets, text messages and possessions quickly expands the boundaries of their relationship, altering their inner chemistry.
　　Gilded by a soundscape that interweaves work by emerging and pioneering electronic musicians, Queens of the Qing Dynasty is an offbeat ode to neurodiversity and genderqueer individuals who refuse to conform. Director Ashley McKenzie’s blend of formalism and gritty realism does not fail to surprise and treats the audience to flashes of visual and conceptual poetry. Her cast is entirely composed of first-time actors who convincingly convey how unique every individual is, both in how they see the world and how they relate to others. Ziyin Zheng in the role of An graciously embodies a mix of idiosyncrasy and frankness that makes them an ideal confidante for Star (Sarah Walker). They have what it takes to be on the receiving end of the scrutinising gaze of Star, who sees through conventions and never ceases to be amazed at life’s bewildering events. Veering on slapstick, Walker’s performance will not go unnoticed.
