Film documents relating to the State Treaty
In flashbacks - which follow the conversational therapy sessions of a psychiatrist (Lom) in impressive images and words until the last veil of all mental secrets is lifted - a concert pianist (Todd) reveals the dilemma of her young life, in which “the cruelly cold guardian (Mason) forces her extraordinary pianistic talent up to virtuoso heights like a tamer” (Die Wiener Bühne).
