This film centers around the character Nebel, a scheming impostor who exploits the nouveau riche, especially Florian von Fett, a former butcher turned private entrepreneur. Fett struggles to adapt to his newfound wealth, masking his insecurities with naive and crude behavior.

The narrative also features the Marchese Vincelli, a parody of the fallen nobility, and a cunning landlord who represents the social climbers of the era. Additional characters include a marriage-hungry old maid, a curtsying daughter, and a sharp-witted maid, creating a vivid tableau of the Biedermeier world that is both cozy and uncomfortable.

As a comedy from the late 1970s, this film offers a unique perspective on societal issues that still resonate today. Collectors may appreciate its exploration of character dynamics and the humorous critique of social hierarchies.
