A Touch of Spring

It's 1933, and two unemployed young men are desperate to leave Nazi Germany. In order to finance their escape, Waldemar Velte and Kurt Sandweg rob a bank, accidentally killing the branch manager in the process. What should the wanted fugitives do? Should they try their luck in republican Spain or search for the mythical "sea route from Wuppertal to India"? Instead, their headlong flight takes them to Basle, of all places - where Waldemar falls hopelessly in love with Dorly Schupp, a girl who sells records in a big store. Every day he buys a different tango record from her, until all the money is gone and the young men find themselves having to plan a second bank robbery.
