When the fish runs out at the South Pole, Pelé Penguin and his parents are forced to move to his uncle Fernandez in Stockholm. Pelé has trouble adjusting to big city life and his clothes and way of talking and eating attract mockery. But when Pelé falls in love with a penguin girl named Madeleine, his life takes a different turn.
In the early 1970s, Briel recorded conversations on tape with the opera and concert singer Adelheid Pickert, then nearly 90 years old, in a garden house in Wilmersdorf. She recalls her greatest successes between 1915 and 1930. In 1981, Briel revisits his meeting with this artist and juxtaposes the old lady's account with his own memories of her.
