The story

Aspiring songwriter Karl Roder travels to the big city, along with a girl he is in love with, Sieglinde Lessing, and her father Walter Lessing, who has just written a new song that he thinks will take the world by storm (with lyrics by Karl). They stumble into the stormy relationship of opera star Frieda Hotzfelt and librettist Bruno Mahler, who constantly bicker and make up. When the composer for their new show suddenly leaves town, they decide to use Walter's song, partially out of convenience and party due to the fact that Bruno has fallen in love with Sieglinde, and Frieda has fallen in love with Karl, though he does not reciprocate.
