It "a musical comedy based on the humorous complications created by an adulterous young wife in the lives of everyone around her ."[3]
The film was shot in Germany because France was not equipped to produce talkie films of sufficient quality for musicals.[4][5]
The film's sets were designed by the art directors Marc Allégret[6] and Julius von Borsody.
