1999年世纪末,一颗印度的核子卫星即将坠地,地球上一片恐慌,视之为世界末日的到临。住在巴黎的女子克蕾儿(Solveig Dommartin饰)在一次离开男友尤金(Sam Neill饰)的浪游中,认识疑为工业间谍的崔佛(William Hurt饰),并且深深为之着迷。一 次车祸意外中,克蕾儿认识二名抢匪,受托运送大批赃款,克蕾儿开始出发去寻找迷一样的人物崔佛。他们的足迹遍布四大洲:从尼斯、巴黎、柏林、里斯本、莫斯科、北京、东京、追逐到旧金山、雪梨,最后到达澳洲中部荒芜的库柏培地原住民生活区。过程中,克蕾儿终于知道崔佛的本名是山姆法柏。他不是工业间谍,而是一位科学家的儿子。许多私家侦探追逐他的原因是老法柏(Max von Sydow饰)制造了一个可以让盲人看见的摄影机。为的是要让山姆目盲的母亲(Jeanne Moreau饰)可以看见她的亲人。就在一群人汇集澳洲峡谷的时候,核子卫星被美国打下,核磁波干扰了所的电器设备,一切都恢复原始的状态。外头的世界不知是生是死?这群人在地下实验室里开始了一连串超越人类科技的实验,数字摄影转换成脑波、再转换成影像的实验成功,终于让山姆的母亲看见家人,不久终因体力不胜负荷而去世。临死前,他母亲说:「看不见反而更好,这世界竟变得如此丑陋。」温德斯的微言大义,在此作了深刻的呈现。之后,包括老法柏、山姆和克蕾儿都陷入对梦境的痴迷中。他们把梦境转成视觉,让人可以读梦(老法柏一直想因此获得诺贝尔奖),山姆和父亲的冲突矛盾、克蕾儿对童年之梦的偏执,像一层层的牢笼,将他们紧紧网住。使每一个人都陷入偏执的迷失当中。只有陈述此事件的尤金是清醒的。他知道世界并没有毁灭(只是时受核磁脉冲影响),只是这群人陷在不可自拔的梦境追寻中。于是一切如尤里西斯的漫游遂都有了反映与解答。
Wunder der Schöpfung is an extraordinary, fascinating Kulturfilm trying to explain the whole human knowledge of the 1920s about the world and the universe. 15 special effects experts and 9 cameramen were involved in the production of this film which combines documentary scenes, historical documents, fiction elements, animation scenes and educational impact. It its beautifully colored, using tinting and toning in a very elaborated way. Some visual ideas in the sequences with a space shuttle visiting different planets in the universe seem to have to be the inspiration for Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. In the context of Germany's Kulturfilm phenomenon, Wunder der Schöpfung was among the greatest achievements of the 1920s. The production was constructed, rehearsed, and shot over a period of two and a half years, under the supervision of Hanns Walter Kornblum. The idea to describe the universe and man's place in it well suited UFA's Grossfilm mentality, one year before the Metropolis catastrophe. Hundreds of skilled craftsmen participated in the project, building props and constructing scale models drawn by 15 special effects draughtsmen, while 9 cameramen in separate units worked on the historical, documentary, fiction, animation, and science-fiction sequences. Without star roles or even protagonists, the film's plot is crowded with meticulously structured and skillfully acted single scenes an artful mosaic of small vignettes. No less than four credited university professors ensured the factual background behind the scientific and historical events portrayed. The film's symbol of progress and the new scientific era is a spacecraft, travelling through the Milky Way, making all the planets and their inspiring worlds familiar to us, with the extravaganza of their distinctive features. The film's educational intentions, however, become steadily more obscure, humorous, or even campy as this popularization project proceeds. With the excuse of presenting the end of the world a not-so-new concept as a new, undeniably scientific truth, the film veers happily along a new path, displaying detailed apocalyptic scenes of the end of mankind. For today's audiences, this amazing film demonstrates how the universe was comprehended in the 1920s, and how that view was sold to contemporary audiences.
