In 1928, a penniless Soviet refugee who dreamed of making a career in Hollywood, escaped from the Soviet Union because of a political incident involving Sergei Eisenstein and Stalin. He assumes the identity of baron Koberski and falls in love with a wealthy young vampiress, miss Flambow-Jansen, spending the summer at the seaside luxury Baltic residence with her awkward servant —with unforeseen consequences in this political vampire comedy.
