Berlín, años 20. Cuando el joven coronel Paul von Przygodski (David Bowie) regresa de la guerra, tras pasar varios meses en coma, se da cuenta de que el mundo que conocía ha cambiado drásticamente. Para él, que pertenece a una familia aristocrática, será muy duro ver su casa convertida en una pensión y tener que buscar algún trabajo para ayudar económicamente a los suyos. Después de un periodo de aturdimiento y desorientación, una noche conoce por azar a la baronesa von Semering (Marlene Dietrich), que regenta un club de gigolós.
