A darkly comedic critique of postwar German capitalism and social hypocrisy, following an ambitious woman who uses seduction as a tool for economic survival until the system crushes her.

West Germany in '50s is becoming an economic superpower. In such climate, Rosemarie is just one of many enterpreneurs who wants her piece of new fortune. She uses her charms to bring members of West German industrial elite to her bed. There she finds business secrets and later sells them to French competition. However, when scandal errupts, Rosemarie would find that she can't beat the system.
