While escaping from Russian captivity, hussar captain Stefan Koltay accidentally meets his beloved Viktoria again in Tokyo. Viktoria, whom Koltay thought dead, is now the wife of the American envoy Cunlight, who is to be transferred to St. Petersburg. – In Petersburg, Viktoria avoids all contact with Koltay, as she still has deep feelings for her hussar. Koltay, who took the great risk of following Viktoria to Russia, is recognized and arrested. Koltay refuses any help from Cunlight. Ultimately, however, it is precisely the noble Cunlight that makes it possible for Viktoria and her hussar to find each other.

Hits like "Mausi, you were sweet tonight" and " Give me your hands once more to say goodbye " were all hits of the season and went around the world.
