Hendrik Hofgen is a man obsessed with becoming a famous actor. When the Nazis come to power in Germany, he renounces his Communist past and deserts his wife and mistress in order to keep on performing. His diabolical performance as Mephistopheles in Faust proves to be the stepping-stone he yearned for: attracting the attention of Hermann Goring.
