A group of German boys are ordered to protect a small bridge in their home village during the waning months of the second world war. Truckloads of defeated, cynical Wehrmacht soldiers flee the approaching American troops, but the boys, full of enthusiasm for the "blood and honor" Nazi ideology, stay to defend the useless bridge. The film is based on a West German anti-war novel of the same name, written by Gregor Dorfmeister.

프랑수아 트뤼포가 ‘진정한 작가’로 평가했던 거장 막스 오퓔스의 마지막 영화. 시네마 스코프와 풍부한 색감의 테크니컬러 등 당시로서는 매우 혁신적인 스타일을 선보인, 영화사적으로 상당히 주요한 작품이다. 19세기 사교계를 풍미했던 롤라가 서커스단의 주인공으로 등장해 플래시 백을 통해 자신의 과거를 들려주는 형식의 이 영화는 당시 제작사의 횡포로 다양한 버전의 판본이 존재하면서 정당한 평가를 받지 못했다.

Winnie is desperate and doesn't know what to do next. She is about to marry her lover Paul, who has returned from war captivity. Both want to emigrate to America short after marriage. But the young woman has an illegitimate one-and-a-half-year-old son, whom she has kept secret from her fiancé. The short-tempered Paul would never understand that. When she is on her way to the orphanage, the grumpy senior civil servant Hieronymus Spitz and his little dog Tobby get into her train compartment. After a short observation, Winnie is certain that the misantrope actually has a good heart, because he lovingly takes care of his dog. Without further ado she leaves little Niki with the tax accountant and disappears from the train. Only a note with a request remains. The overwhelmed old gentleman initially wants to get rid of the child, but then takes it home and takes care of it together with his housekeeper. Both take the bundle of joy to their hearts. But then everything turns out differently.
