Albert Hauptmann is an out of work waiter in Cologne who is often confused with a former Captain of the Nazi Army. Albert uses this to his advantage and becomes the Director of the Montan Corporation, and a member of the West German Parliament.

When Albert is finally brought before a judge on charges of fraud, he learns that this own amnesty law does not apply to him.
