Vienna, City of My Dreams
1957 · Movie · 104 min. · Austria
In the made-up country of Alanien, King Alexander I has been overthrown while abroad. Now, he’s in Vienna with his daughter, the city of his fondest memories since studying there as a boy. It doesn’t take long for the charm of Vienna to work its magic on the former king: he quickly comes to terms with the new situation and is able to enjoy the Austrian capital sans all the ceremony and trappings which would otherwise accompany him on a state visit. The princess is content with preparing herself for a career as a pianist concert, while the former king takes a job as a chauffeur in the embassy of the country he once ruled. The revolutionaries are shocked; and his days in Vienna are numbered.
