Summary[]

In the grips of a psychological breakdown, chocolate-factory owner Hermann Hermann (Dirk Bogarde) decides to escape his troubles by murdering his look-alike and disguising the corpse in order to fake his own death. However, his victim's "resemblance" exists only in Hermann's delusional mind; the two men actually look nothing alike.
