The film is rooted in the Orlando figure of Virginia Woolf's novel, the human being who could not only change sex but who lived through centuries, thereby empowered to undergo all experiences humanly or socially possible,. Orlando, the protagonist constantly transforming herself in the changes wrought by the centuries, allows, in her own person, certain constant factors and similarities in our history to become visible.
