Das Leben kann so schön sein (1938)
The young marriage of the insurance agent Hannes and his wife Nora is being worn down by financial difficulties and overcrowded living conditions. Hannes is unable to sell enough policies and life becomes ever worse for the two. Nora attempts to earn some extra money, but even that proves to be a burden on their relationship, not the least because her boss is hitting up on her. She's expecting Hannes' child, too, but he is starting to turn further and further away from her.
