Detours to Happiness (1939)
Hanna is deeply worried about her husband Thomas Bracht's fidelity because he had a rendezvous with the singer Jeannette Danieli. She leaves him and meets with the singer for a heart-to-heart. Very soon, she realizes that her jealousy was completely unfounded. Her flirtation with a travel companion is also quickly forgotten, and she returns to her husband, full of remorse. When Thomas learns of her affair, they decide to put the past behind them and face the future with confidence.
