"Surprisingly for a film with a Nazi propaganda pedigree, this one has a very Viennese sureness of touch. It could be from the makers of ROMANZE IN MOLLE (Breuer is in both) even if it's not that good. The 150 year Bavarian linen business is bought out by nasty Breuer, who plans on putting all the honest weavers out of work by importing cheap linen from Ireland. His evil plot is to take over the Czech Libussa Linen company and win the owner's daughter, the fetching Frauline Von Meyendorf as a blonde. This gets to hinge on the romance between Irena and upright young ministry official ..."
