| Synopsis: | Franziska sells her independence to a Mephistophelean impresario in return for two years of pleasure and brilliant success in her operatic career. She moves from cabaret to court theatre, leaving behind a trail of casualties but, in an unusual twist, Franziska is not destined for eternal damnation | |||||
