The Man Who Walked Through the Wall

Mr Buchsbaum is a clerk at the tax office. He works in a third-class grade. His life passes quietly and in order. Then a new chief arrives at the office. From the first day the chief criticises his work. Buchsbaum’s one comfort is his stamp collection. But that comfort comes under threat too. A neighbour who teaches piano moves in next door. The man’s peace is broken altogether. His anger keeps growing. One evening he discovers something by accident. He can walk through walls. With that power he decides to settle scores. First in line is the chief who pushed him down. Heinz Rühmann and Rudolf Vogel take the leads in Ladislao Vajda’s German comedy.
