"A woman arrives terribly late for a date with her husband in a small café. He has given up, so – as bad luck would have it – the two pass each other in the revolving door. When they do actually meet up, she has a lovely surprise for her husband ... Structured like a theatrical sketch, this comical commercial for a Dortmund fashion boutique uses puns and situation comedy to document the first stirrings of the consumer society in Germany." - Berlinale 2018

The impressive cast is headed by the great Heinrich George as Boris Stroganoff, an opera composer and conductor who’s also a notorious lothario. Albani is ballet dancer Viola Suroff, who’s put her career aside to look after her partner Maxim Sadi, a baritone with unspecified health issues that have kept him off stage. Stroganoff sets his sights on Viola and offers her a job in the corps de ballet for his new opera The Boyar, which she accepts provided Maxim is also hired. However, dancer Margot (called Myrra in the French version) maintains a seething passion for Stroganoff, as does Countess Geschow (called Countess Ziska on this print), both of whom are resentful when watching his interactions with Viola. Jealousies run high on opening night between all the characters and Stroganoff is shot mid-performance, but who is the killer: Maxim, Margot, or Geschow?I

Determined to prove his innocence, Salto King makes a daring escape to avoid arrest. Convinced that Ms. Montis is the one behind the crime, he pursues her across land, water, and air—with his faithful German Shepherd, Greif, constantly by his side.

Prince Valona has a bit of trouble with his girlfriend Eveline (Olivia Fried), so he's quite open for the attraction of a young lady he meets by chance (Valerie Boothby). He doesn't know, however, that this lady is a detective who follows the con-man Carlo Moreno, and as the prince and the criminal look alike, she mistakes the prince for the criminal. The real Moreno isn't far away, though, and he first deprives the prince of his train ticket and then also takes on his identity in order to steal a pearl necklace from Eveline.

The young student Mary spends the beginning of her holiday with boat trips, visits to her wealthy groom, and gardening. In fast-paced, rhythmic cuts, Louise and Jakob Fleck draw their audience into a carefree, urban romantic comedy. With a single scene, however, it turns into a melodrama about sexual violence, shame and perpetrator-victim reversal.
