What happens

Ball at the Savoy (German: Ball im Savoy) is a 1935 Austrian-Hungarian musical film directed by Steve Sekely and starring Gitta Alpar, Hans Jaray and Rosy Barsony. Part of the tradition of operetta films, it is based on the 1932 work of the same title by Paul Abraham. It was remade the following year in Britain. The film's sets were designed by the art director Marton Vincze. The film was shot at the Hunnia Film Studios in Budapest. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
