The Small White Mouse

The 'White Mouse' Fritz directs traffic at Dresden's Körner Square. Helene, who traverses the junction daily on her motor scooter, has long since developed a crush on Fritz. Although Fritz frequently yields right-of-way to her, they have never spoken. To finally get to know him better, Helene deliberately commits a traffic violation. Her plan works: she is ordered to take road safety education lessons from Fritz and they grow closer. New problems arise in the form of Mrs. Messmer, who must pay a monetary fine. She feels discriminated against by Fritz and complains about him to his supervisor.
