Synopsis

[edit]

Actor Willy Fritsch is due to star in a new film. However, the actor, the screenwriter and the film director argue over the content of the production. Although they want to make a comedy, they are unsure how appropriate that is in the wake of the Second World War. As they discuss this, the screenwriter relates the story of two acquaintances of his, the farmer's daughter Christine and the art dealer Martin. Gradually their relationship becomes the subject of the film.
