Plot summary
In 1950s Germany, Lulu comes from a wealthy family. Jimi, a black man, runs a bumper car stall. The two fall in love, and her family, above all her mother Gertrud, refuses to accept the match. Gertrud has already picked a suitor for her daughter, and Lulu wants none of him. Around the couple stand Gertrud's chauffeur Schultz and the psychiatrist Von Oppeln, who keeps watch on Lulu from his office. Set to rock and roll and dance numbers, the story follows the pair as they try to hold on to each other against a society that will not have them.
