At the law firm: the end of a long inheritance procedure. It seems that for Albert Gregor (a descendant of Ferdinand Gregor) the case is lost. His lawyer, Dr. Kolenaty, arrives with the mysterious singer Emilia Marty... At the center of the Makropulos Affair is the recipe for a life-extending elixir invented by the physician Hieronymus Makropulos for Emperor Rudolf II. It was tested on the doctor's beautiful daughter, who has been alive for 337 years and has had countless affairs over the generations. Eventually, however, the seemingly young woman must realize that an endless life on this side of the world brings only loneliness...

To everyone's astonishment, she knows the background to the dispute over the inheritance - and refers to the hitherto unknown Baron's will, which is then found and brought to court by Dr Kolenatý, accompanied by his opponent Jaroslav Prus. However, Emilia Martyová is primarily interested in the Greek document attached to the will. Albert Gregor falls in love with Emilia Marty.
