An aristocrat falls in love with a human cannonball

A dance teacher helps his ten well-bred student sisters when they leave home as a protest against their father's intended wedding. They form a café group called Die lustigen Weiber aus Wien (The merry Viennese girls).

A forester's daughter arrests a poacher without knowing it is Emperor Franz Joseph. A lively game with a melancholic touch begins. Set in Austria, 1850, this romantic tragicomedy is based on the operetta by Georg Jarno.

Nicky and Vicky, two librettists who also happen to be brothers, are presently in collaboration with composer Toni. All too aware of Toni's amorous escapades, Nicky and Vicky try to keep the existence of their pretty sister Hedi a secret. Suffering from an acute case of writers' block (he has yet to find an inspiration for his next production), Toni throws a huge party, which is boycotted by his friends and associates so that he'll keep his mind on his work.
