A small Bavarian village is renowned for its glass-blowing works. When the foreman of the works dies suddenly without revealing the secret of the "Ruby Glass", the town slides into a deep depression, and the owner of the glassworks becomes obsessed with the lost secret. Infamously, the cast of the film performs mostly under hypnosis.
