Вся семья Дассау из Вены художественно честолюбивая, но безуспешная. Отец, усердный почтовый служащий, пишет «кровавые» детективы, которые не находят издателя. Никто не хочет слушать песни о любви его жены. Их младшая дочь Бригитта — непризнанная художница, а старшая Николь пишет глубоко чувствительные стихи о «листьях, которые шепчут на деревьях». Когда Николь снова получает отказ издательства, она решает поставить «аморальную пьесу», соответствующую духу времени. Под заголовком «Ева — мемуары 17-летней» Николь излагает предположительно автобиографические переживания чувственной девушки, которую обманывает ее супруг. Пьеса на сцене старо-почтенного Венского придворного театра имеет сенсационный успех. Вся Вена гадает, кто же автор… Тем временем, американский кинопродюсер Эрвин Дотт предлагает большую сумму за право экранизации пьесы. Но с одним условием — он желает познакомиться с автором лично…
