This German film in which a pretentious, naïve middle-aged high-school teacher’s life is destroyed through his romantic infatuation with a seductively wayward young cabaret-singer he meets at a nightclub, showcases a downward spiral filled with hopelessness toward absolute nadir.
It portrays a catastrophic transformation of a man from a respectable professor to a cuckold cabaret clown, losing all human dignity, nose-diving into madness and eventual death
Life starts jolly well – and then things go terribly wrong!
One can see how man is responsible for his own action and destruction
