关于宗教的故事——失业的天主教徒唱着“每颗精子都是神圣的”，把一屋四五十个孩子送去做医学实验，因为再也负担不起他们，而对门的新教夫妇一面幸灾乐祸，一面感叹自己“只性交两次，有两个孩子”；关于性的故事——教授在课堂上向学生讲解“性”是什么，但是学生总不得要领，无奈之下，教授把自己太太拉过来当堂向学生示范；关于死亡的故事——死神来到一个农舍，声言要带走所有人，但这里聚集了许多美国朋友，不但毫不在意，还热情地邀请他喝酒聊天，让死神忍无可忍……人生七部曲，七个沉重的话题却放入足够荒诞的故事，嬉笑怒骂讽刺世间百态。

Haunted by the memory of Walter Holderlin, a soldier he killed during World War I, French musician Paul Renard (Phillips Holmes) confesses to a priest (Frank Sheridan), who grants him absolution. Using the address on a letter he found on the dead man's body, Paul then travels to Germany to find his family.　　As anti-French sentiment continues to permeate Germany, Dr. Holderlin (Lionel Barrymore) initially refuses to welcome Paul into his home, but changes his mind when his son's fiancée Elsa identifies him as the man who has been leaving flowers on Walter's grave. Rather than reveal the real connection between them, Paul tells the Holderlin family he was a friend of their son, who attended the same musical conservatory he did.　　Although the hostile townspeople and local gossips disapprove, the Holderlins befriend Paul, who finds himself falling in love with Elsa (Nancy Carroll). When she shows Paul her former fiancé's bedroom, he becomes distraught and tells her the truth. She convinces him not to confess to Walter's parents, who have embraced him as their second son, and Paul agrees to forego easing his conscience and stays with his adopted family. Dr. Holderlin presents Walter's violin to Paul, who plays it while Elsa accompanies him on the piano.　　The film's original title, The Man I Killed, was changed to The Fifth Commandment to avoid giving wrong impressions in the minds of the public about the character of the story. It ultimately was released as Broken Lullaby.
