action

As an episode film, the film leads ten characters in a dance through Berlin society: a prostitute is cheated out of her wages by a dealer , the dealer seduces an illegal cleaning lady in the next scene, who is turned on by her employer's son in the third scene . However, he falls seriously in love with an acquaintance of his parents who has problems with her husband, who in turn is interested in his dental assistant. The sweet dental assistant gets involved with the apparently hardened celebrity photographer, who, however, has had a " kindred spirit " and an affair with a celebrated film actress for a long time . This in turn begins a Techtel-Mechtel with the count at a public event, who - so the round ends - ends up drunk in the prostitute's dump in the last scene. The highlight of the film is also a vernissage in which the characters from the episodes are brought together.
