After the First World War and the fall of the monarchy, a young officer of the Austro- Hungarian Army, Franz Ferdinand Trotta, returned to Vienna from Russian captivity. He is overwhelmed with the new order and the circumstances. He has lost his fortune and his wife has indulged in a same-sex relationship with an emancipated Hungarian artist.
