Synopsis

Hannerl Möller, the daughter of a museum director, has ambitions to become a theater dancer despite her father's disapproval. She secretly takes dance lessons, and then bluffs her way ahead of all the other hopefuls by pretending to be the daughter of the theatrical producer. Believing that she may actually be his daughter from a dalliance in Cologne many years before, he hires her for his latest revue show. This is to the irritation of the young theatre director Peter Bergmeister, who gradually develops feelings for her. However, when her lie about her parentage is about to be exposed, she runs away from the show.
