The timeless compositions of Franz Liszt are heard throughout the Hungarian historical romance Szerelmi Almok (Love Dreams). Though Liszt himself is a major character, the heroine of the piece is Hungarian countess Maria Duday (Maria Salyok). Leaving her fiancé at the altar, Maria insists upon becoming Liszt's pupil. In addition to her passion for her teacher, Maria also becomes involved with a young orchestra conductor, who ends up being wounded in a duel with her ex-fiancé. In the end, however, Maria and the musician are reunited as she plays a Liszt concerto under his direction. A German-language version of Szerelmi Almok was filmed simultaneously with a different cast.

Revolutionaries plot to assassinate a president by blowing up the rail tracks in order make his train derail but this is averted just in time.

Set on the Hungarian plains and in romantic Budapest, the film follows Rose Barsony’s spirited dancer-singer and Wolf Albach-Retty’s young noble as they navigate love, song and national pride. When the aristocratic family’s fortunes are threatened by the heir’s prodigality, veteran estate manager Károly Sugár steps in to safeguard the daughter’s inheritance. Against a backdrop of blooded horses, vineyard laborers and patriotic pageantry, the couple’s romance unfolds through musical numbers and colorful travelogue sequences that celebrate Hungary’s landscape and culture.

The film depicts the composer Franz Liszt and takes its name from his 1850 piano work of the same title.

The carefree squandering of Baron Inokay's wealth, the steward Gáspár Borly - who is called "the old scoundrel" behind his back - is rumored to have been stealing from the Baron's family for years and has amassed a large fortune. Baroness Mária Inokay, who was raised in Vienna and is destined to be Count Balassa, returns home. However, Mária loves her childhood playmate, Gáspár Borly's grandson. Old Borly is eventually convicted of the theft, but his will reveals that he only saved what he could and left all the valuables he had embezzled to Mária. After this, nothing can stand in the way of their previously seemingly hopeless love.
