Lola Montez, die T�nzerin des K�nigs

Gypsy Lola Montez is told by an old woman that she will marry a king. This is used to poison the throne-pretendent of Spain, giving the crown to Carlos, but this fails. Lola is arrested, but able to convince the local governor of her innocence. Together they go to Venice, the situation in Spain is becoming too dangerous for him. In Venice, she meets a student from Munich and falls in love with him, but her mentor orders her to follow him to Paris, where she is soon involved with the future ruler, Napoleon III. After a political scandal she leaves for Munich hoping to meet the student again, but trying to get a booking at the Royal theater there, she meets king Ludwig I, who is soon facing political troubles with a rebellious population with a strong dislike for Lola Montez.
