It is the year 40,000 AD. When evil scientist Durand Durand creates a deadly weapon with the potential to cause mass devastation, the President of Earth dispatches Barbarella to hunt him down. Crash-landing in an icy wilderness somewhere within the Tau Ceti planetary system, Barbarella is rescued by Mark Hand, and guided by the blind angel Pygar to Durand's lair in Sogo, a city of corruption and debauchery, where an encounter with the Great Tyrant Black Queen and her minions throws her mission into jeopardy.
