The film's sets were designed by the art directors Hans Ledersteger and Ernst Richter.[2] It is a remake of the 1931 film of the same title directed by Johannes Guter during the Weimar era.[3]
Newspaper deliveryman Felix meets the attractive Anni and to impress her pretends that he is actually Willy Lohmeyer a friend of his who is a celebrated six day bicycle racer.
