Overview
Everything seems perfect in the lives of Andreas and Garda. They have a happy marriage and up-and-coming talent Andreas is constantly striving to reach the top of his sport. But their happiness is suddenly clouded when the racing driver suffers a serious accident at the Nürburgring. He is sent to Switzerland to recover. There, however, a second shadow looms over the couple's idyll, this time in the form of the beautiful, rich Argentinian widow Joan de Portago. When Garda finds out about her husband's flirtations, she becomes jealous and begins to fake an affair of her own in return. When Joan's old admirer Dr. Albys joins the triangle, the web of love becomes increasingly tangled.
