Not a Word About Love (German: Kein Wort von Liebe) is a 1937 Czechoslovak-German romantic comedy film directed by Miroslav Cikán and Alwin Elling and starring Ellen Schwanneke, Rolf Wanka and Richard Romanowsky. It is the German-language version of Poslíček lásky.
Plot The secretary of a journalist habitually crossdresses as a man to research undercover. She is hired, as a man, by a dress manufacturer who suspects he's the victim of industrial espionage. At the dress factory she catches an intern photographing the new designs. The intern quickly throws the camera out a window and frames the undercover agent as the spy. To complicate everything, the industrialist encounters his agent off-duty in a café and, not recognizing her, falls in love with her as a woman.
