It opens with a Tannhäuser performance and ends with the premiere of The Tales of Hoffmann. Between them a young ingénue lands her first major role, Hoffmann rehearsals proceed, and the theatre director and his stage director trade cynical banter while a romance blossoms. Gründgens appears at his most repulsive, courting both lovers, leading to a hair‑raising finale, all driven by brisk dialogue and daring pre‑code scenes that keep viewers on edge.
