This is a lackluster office romace type of a drama, thinly vailed as a crime story. Bonds are being forged at a company, so everyone is under suspicion. The daughter of the CO is struggling between two love interests.
Sadly the film suffers from uninspired direction and lazy camera work. Even the utterly decorative Margot Hielscher can't save the outcome, as she has nothing much to do. You might expect her to sing, but you'll be disappointed - today she's mostly remembered as one the first true German swing singers who represented her country twice at the Eurovision, but back then UFA only featured her in one major musical, which is a total conundrum, seeing that all the actresses were made to sing in films, even those who were rather miserable at that.
