Storyline

A television production of F. Schiller's comedy with the eloquently ambiguous subtitle How to Arrange Happiness in Life. A story about a social parasite, schemer and hypocrite who shamelessly abuses human gullibility and good-naturedness for the benefit of his own selfish interests. The focus of this comedy lies primarily in the socio-psychological analysis of arivism and unprincipled careerism as negative social phenomena, personified in the figure of a ministerial official.
