In this realistic, unsentimental portrait of Germany’s dire economic situation, a middle-aged payroll clerk loses his job due to technological advances and, unable to find another, descends into despair. The film’s director, Marie Harder, was one of only a few women directors of the time and was also the head of the German Social Democratic Film Office. She made only two known films before her accidental death in exile in Mexico in 1936.

German language version of Two Worlds.

Prince Valona has a bit of trouble with his girlfriend Eveline (Olivia Fried), so he's quite open for the attraction of a young lady he meets by chance (Valerie Boothby). He doesn't know, however, that this lady is a detective who follows the con-man Carlo Moreno, and as the prince and the criminal look alike, she mistakes the prince for the criminal. The real Moreno isn't far away, though, and he first deprives the prince of his train ticket and then also takes on his identity in order to steal a pearl necklace from Eveline.
