A comedy based on partially authentic events. The year is 1917, World War I is raging and dividing Germany between west and east. The Russian tsar is deposed. Lenin, who is in Zurich, wants to start a revolution – but how? An unbroken chain of accidents and assassination attempts ends in St. Petersburg, Lenin's target. This marks the beginning of 10 days that will shake the world.
An adventurous Danish sailor falls in love with the beautiful French singer Christine in this romantic adventure. Chased by soldiers, he takes cover under beds and petticoats in order to escape capture. Several dance scenes highlight this musical comedy that uses a limited amount of sight gags.
