What happens

Victoria and Her Hussar (German: Viktoria und ihr Husar) is a 1931 German musical film directed by Richard Oswald and starring Michael Bohnen, Friedel Schuster and Iván Petrovich. It is an Operetta film based on the operetta Viktoria und ihr Husar by Paul Abraham which was itself inspired by a work by Imre Földes. Two later film versions of the operetta were made in 1954 and 1982. It was shot at the Tempelhof Studios in Berlin. The film's sets were designed by the art director Franz Schroedter.
