Justine's lavish wedding to Michael collapses under her severe depression, straining sister Claire and brother-in-law John. Later, the planet Melancholia approaches Earth, and the sisters' emotional positions reverse as astronomical threat becomes undeniable.

The operatic prologue, Bruegel imagery, wedding rituals, a wire circle, horses, blue planetary light, and Wagner's Tristan prelude make private illness and cosmic collision echo without becoming simple metaphor.
