Far from the Stalingrad Front, Charley's bar is a decadent world filled with eccentric souls who consider themselves heirs to the broken spirit of the times, snobs completely disinterested in the events that led to World War II. The young Traugott von Yassilkovski tries to establish himself within Nazi Berlin's high society, and so he learns how to dress, how to speak, with whom to socialize, and he even marries a blond Aryan woman, the heiress to an ammunitions fortune. This ironic satire about social climbing is an exciting psychological portrayal of a prewar Berlin already completely permeated by Nazism."Lejos del frente de Stalingrado, el bar de Charley reune un decadente mundo repleto de seres estrafalarios que se consideran herederos del maltrecho espiritu de la epoca, esnobs despreocupados con los acontecimientos que desencadenan la Segunda Guerra Mundial. El joven Traugott von Yassilkovski intenta establecerse dentro de esta alta sociedad en el Berlin nazi, y para ello aprende como vestirse, como hablar, con quien socializar y hasta se casa con una mujer rubia y aria, heredera de una fortuna de municiones. Esta satira ironica sobre el ascenso social es un trepidante retrato psicologico de un Berlin completamente permeado por el nazismo en los anos anteriores a la guerra.""
