Berlin provides the backdrop for this crime drama that centers on a military doctor falsely accused of dealing illegal drugs. Determined to prove his innocence, he escapes from the MPs and ends up holing up in the apartment his wife rented. He doesn't know that she has sublet the flat to a nightclub singer (there is a terrific number where Neff sings "Love Isn't Love"). When he finds out, he begs the singer to assist him.

Brilliantly directed thriller by acclaimed female director Muriel Box.
