What might put you off
  • It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1957: an older pace and style.

Aspiring singer Susanne takes over for ham actor Viktor at a small cabaret in Berlin where he works a woman impersonator and per chance she's discovered by an agent, who thinks, that she really is a man. She becomes famous, but her situation becomes troublesome, when she falls in love with Robert.
