What happens

Victoria and Her Hussar (German: Viktoria und ihr Husar) is a 1954 West German musical film directed by Rudolf Schündler and starring Eva Bartok, Friedrich Schoenfelder and Rudolf Forster. Part of the tradition of operetta films, it is an adaptation of the 1930 operetta Viktoria und ihr Husar by Paul Abraham. A previous film adaptation Victoria and Her Hussar had already been produced in 1931 by Richard Oswald. It was made at the Wandsbek Studios in Hamburg. The film's sets were designed by the art director Dieter Bartels and Felix Smetana. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
