Synopsis

In order to save his family estate Bertil Stiernhielm, son of a count, marries Britta Magnusson the daughter of a sausage millionaire. However he has grave doubts about whether this is consistent with his family honour. Meanwhile his twin brother Casimir returns from serving in the Swedish navy and is mistaken by Britta for Bertil.
