冷战结束前夕,东德男孩Hansel为逃离所谓“禁锢”,追求西方世界宣扬的“自由”,被迫经历身份的转变,使用母亲Hedwig的名字来到美国,但很快被抛弃。

闯荡美国,她爱上了雇主的儿子Tommy,本以为是情投意合的灵魂伴侣,Tommy却在剽窃了她的音乐作品后,弃之而去,独自名利双收。

再次经历创伤的她组建了乐队“The Angry Inch”,与伙伴Yitzhak在Tommy演唱会场馆外的酒吧演出。Hedwig通过夸张的妆发和狂躁的音乐宣泄愤怒,回顾了寻寻觅觅的一生。最终,她在音乐中拥抱了残缺的自己,完成了自我觉醒,实现了自我救赎……

在以撤的介紹下,希域出場,並介紹著自己的樂隊以及助手兼丈夫以撤。希域指自己是個飽歷風霜之人,並把他的故事回到最頭。("Tear Me Down")小時候,他是一個美國大兵和東德女人之子,名字叫作漢素,並對搖滾樂及哲學著迷。即使父親很早便離棄了他們,其母又非常專制,她卻說了一個故事令他留下了深刻印象,同時亦堅定地想找尋自己的另一半。("The Origin of Love")長大後他愛上了另一個美國大兵盧化,為了脫離共產主義的東德,他便想跟盧化一起回去美國。("Sugar Daddy")但當時規定只許伴侶這樣做,為此漢素進行了變性手術,卻在中途出了意外,令他成為了一個不男不女的無性人。("Angry Inch")

儘管如此他還是順利的來到了美國並改名希域,開始了一段生活。好景不常,才一年盧化便離開了他。("Wig in a Box")他試了好幾份工作,並嘗試發展自己的樂隊。他找到了一群韓戰留下來的妻子以及另一女人型以撤,還有一個怕羞的小伙子名叫湯美。希域寫的第一首歌讓他開展了新的旅程,("Wicked Little Town")他和湯美之間的感情亦越來越親密 - 直至湯美因不能接受其性別而離開,("The Long Grift")還拿了希域作的歌來讓自己成為名星之後。希域悲痛欲絕,("Hedwig's Lament")一時之間他心情跌至低點,("Exquisite Corpse")而湯美則名成利就。("Wicked Little Town (Reprise)")

但湯美盜用別人的歌曲來使自己成名始終被人發現了,之後湯美亦捲進了一件車禍之中。湯美並無大礙,但亦被逼公開這位名不見經傳的作曲家給公眾,此時湯美和希域彷彿成為了同一個人,向自己的觀眾們表演。希域把假髮遞給以撤,並將他由自己之中解放出來,至於希域 - 則只有繼續留在自己的音樂以及樂隊之中。("Midnight Radio")

[附加資料: 電影版中加有另外幾首歌:"Nailed"、"Freaks"和"In Your Arms Tonight";而外百老匯唱片中則加入了另一首在劇裡面沒有的歌曲"Random Number Generation"。]

Sigur Rós 给了许多电影工作者相同的经费预算,请他们把听到每首新歌,第一个脑海里浮现的画面给拍摄出来。这个实验计划的点子,是要影片工作者能够抛开席格若斯的认同,让他们能够呈现最有创意的一面,这项计划的影片制作人有 Ramin Bahrani、Alma Har'el、Joh n Cameron Mitchell 以及 Ryan McGinley。席格若斯不想要事先在专辑出来之前先有任何的预先立场,也不想告诉听众如何去感受和从这张专辑获得到什么,当然团员没有人会知道导演将会拍出些什么影片给他们。
