In a thriving West German city plagued by corruption, a new building commissioner, Herr von Bohm, is determined to drive progress while maintaining integrity. Despite being smitten with Marie-Louise, his landlady's daughter, von Bohm is unaware that she leads a double life as Lola, a singer at a bordello and the mistress of a local builder whose fortunes rely on von Bohm's projects. As von Bohm uncovers the truth and scrutinizes the builder's work, a social satire unfolds, blending elements of "The Blue Angel," "The Visit," and "Rules of the Game."
