That glib rascal Mephistopheles, played by Gustaf Grundgens, is once more tempting the dissillusioned scholar, Faust. With the black powers of the devil behind him, Faust entices the beautiful Gretchen. Able to resist at first, Gretchen finally succumbs to Faust's blandishments and expensive gifts. The latter are supplied by Mephistopheles.

The film itself is photographed in an impressionistic style on a simple studio stage. It re-creates Gustaf Grundgens' historic production in the Deutsches Schauspielhaus in Hamburg and his later production at the City Center in I-Jew York. As on the stage, Grund­ gens plays brilliantly the role of the devil, Mephisto.
