Das Wunder der Heliane
In an unnamed totalitarian state, a ruler condemns a stranger who has brought joy to his subjects. Heliane visits the prisoner and falls in love with him, but refuses his request to give herself to him. The ruler discovers them and puts her on trial for adultery. After the stranger kills himself, Heliane must prove her innocence by restoring him to life. As she is taken to execution, he miraculously rises. The ruler wounds Heliane, and the lovers ascend together as the stranger's blessing ends his power.
