The two-part television film "The White House on the Rhine" is based on true events and describes how the family around Fritz Dreesen (Benjamin Sadler) ran a highly renowned hotel in Bad Godesberg after the First World War. Guests such as Marlene Dietrich, Charlie Chaplin and Gustav Stresemann stayed here, but also a man named Adolf Hitler who was registered as a "stateless writer". Fritz and Maria Dreesen's (Katharina Schüttler) hotel experienced the Golden Twenties as well as the National Socialist era - including all the dramatic turns in politics and society.
