Synopsis
Violinmaker Franz Brugger is in love with Christa. When he is conscripted during the Second World War she promises to wait for him. He fights on the Eastern Front for four years and then is held as a prisoner of war by the Soviets for a further ten. All along he is kept going by the song "Lili Marlene" and the thought of Christa. When at last he is released, he returns home to Berlin and finds the world significantly changed from that which he remembers. Worse, Christa is engaged to be married to another man. He sets out to win her back.
