What happens

Adventure in Vienna (German: Abenteuer in Wien) is a 1952 Austrian crime thriller film directed by Emil E. Reinert and starring Gustav Fröhlich, Cornell Borchers and Adrienne Gessner. It is an adaptation of the 1933 novel I Was Jack Mortimer by Alexander Lernet-Holenia. A separate English-language version Stolen Identity was also produced. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Fritz Jüptner-Jonstorff and Fritz Moegle. It was shot at the Schönbrunn Studios in Vienna and on location across the city. The costumes were designed by Nadja Tiller, who subsequently went on to become a famous actress. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
