Plot Summary

Young, naive, fairy-tale-loving Luisa Ginglebusher leaves the Budapest orphanage to become a movie usherette. Soon she befriends paternal waiter Detlaff and not-so-paternal Konrad, a meat-packing millionaire. Uninterested in Konrad's rich gifts, Luisa schemes to be a "good fairy" and divert some of this wealth to poor stranger Dr. Sporum. But it's not that simple.
