Moving from café to fun fair in a typically “Viennese” setting, the film is about the life of two people fate has done ill by, yet who pull through thanks to their love for each other. Bertl is 50 and lives on state welfare. Among other things he has been an actor, paper hanger, drill sergeant for the army, porter and hobo. He has a marriage and two suicide attempts behind him. He was saved by Kathi, whom he loves and cares for. Kathi is 35 and judged mentally incompetent by the state. She is the mother of one child, and looks after Pinki, their pet Guinea pig.
