Mit der Kapuzinergruft schrieb Joseph Roth sein meisterhaftes Epos vom Untergang des Habsburgerreiches fort, das mit dem Radetzkymarsch so glanzvoll begonnen hatte. Roth erzählt die fesselnde Geschichte der Trottas, die in den turbulenten Jahren um den Ersten Weltkrieg dem Niedergang der Familie und einer ganzen Epoche entgegensehen.
A thief steals a golden statue, the 'Mama Lupa', and makes his getaway on a bicycle. Romy and Remo‘s dog gives chase at once. Meanwhile, Globi wakes up at his little albergo, ready to start his day. Stepping out onto the pavement, he is knocked down by a large dog, followed by her owners, the twins Romy and Remo … It‘s the beginning of a wild, spectacular chase, on foot and by scooter, with the panorama of the Eternal City unfolding as a backdrop. Globi also meets the Swiss Guard, who insist on showing him around – and he even bumps into the Pope!
