action
The widowed King Tobald is urged by his advisor to remarry so that the kingdom can have a queen. He presented him with pictures of three beautiful women of marriageable age. The king categorically refuses and explains to his advisor that he has made a firm promise to his late wife that he will only marry someone who is like her, and that there is not a single one in the world. As he said this, his gaze fell through the window on his daughter Lotte, who was busy there in the courtyard, and from one moment to the next he was passionate about her. He has his daughter and his court announced that he will marry her, his own daughter, because she is the only one who resembles his late wife in grace and beauty. The daughter rejects this request as being against God's law. The consultant and cook also disagree. But the king invokes his power. So the daughter agrees to appear and gives the father difficult tasks:
She wants three dresses, one as golden as the sun , another as silver as the moon and the third as shiny as the stars . In addition, it demands a cloak, which is said to be composed of a thousand different furs and grains , and every animal in the kingdom is to add a piece of skin. The king promises to grant all wishes. The maidens of the empire weave sunlight and moonlight into the fabrics, and servants catch shooting stars, which are woven into the third garment. All the hunters of the empire go out to hunt one of each species. The coat is also finished in this way. So the king's daughter no longer has the power to refuse her father. Therefore, on the night before the planned wedding, she puts on the robe of a maid, smears her face and her hands with soot, throws on her fur coat, and prepares to flee. The three wonderful dresses are hidden by magic in a walnut that the girl takes. On the way out she meets the cook who wishes her luck and lets her go. The king's daughter asks the cook whether her mother really wanted her father to marry her. The cook denies this, the queen wished that her husband would find a wife with a golden heart again. So the king, in his grief, confused appearance with inner beauty. The cook gives the girl a ring, a small spinning wheel and a small gold reel on behalf of the mother . These things should help her find her loved one. She escapes from the castle and from her father's empire. When she is deep in the forest, she lies down.
The next day there is a hunt there, in which the young King Jacob and his followers take part. The hunters find a strange "furry creature" and report it to the king. He orders it to be brought to the castle alive. When the hunters discover that it is a girl, the prince decides that she should help in the kitchen. The cook Mathis baptizes the girl Allerleirauh and accepts her as a kitchen help. All the while the girl hides under his fur. It is therefore laughed at and humiliated by the king's followers and also by himself, but endures this with pride. The cook asks her why she doesn't show herself to anyone. Reluctantly, she replies that someone looked at her once. The cook understands and asks her forgiveness. Rasmus, who is married to the king's sister, urges him to marry soon and suggests that a feast be held and a powerful king's daughter invited. But the young king doesn't think much of a marriage of convenience; he wants to marry for love or not at all. Nevertheless, he agrees. The girl asks the cook if she can watch the party. He allows her for half an hour and goes to sleep. Allerleirauh puts on the golden garment made of sunlight yarn. At the party the king dances with her and leaves the princess who has been invited for him. When he asks Allerleirauh who she is, she escapes from him. She disappears into the kitchen in a fur robe and wakes the cook. While seasoning the soup, she throws in the ring from the golden box. When the king finds the ring in the soup, he calls the cook, who says that the "rough animal" cooked it. The king has the girl brought. When it does not know, he sends it back again.
Again the king gives a party, and Allerleihrauh is allowed to watch again for half an hour. She puts on the silver dress made of woven moonlight and dances with the king. He asks again who she is, she says her real name, Lotte, and escapes. Allerleihrauh disappears again into the kitchen and, wearing a fur robe, brings the king the soup into which she threw the golden spinning wheel this time. While eating, the king notices the spinning wheel and has all sorts of raucous be called to him. When she doesn't reveal anything again, the king becomes angry and throws her to the ground. Allerleihrauh then wants to leave the farm, but Mathis encourages her. She fell in love with Mathis and loves him almost like a father.
The king confronts Allerleihrauh and wants to know what to do with a spinning wheel, she thinks you spin threads of love. The king then plans a third festival. Mathis forbids Allerleirauh, out of concern for her well-being, that she goes to the party and locks her in the kitchen. But she pleads with him to be allowed to go. Mathis finally lets her go with the promise to take off her fur afterwards. She puts on the blue dress with the stars woven into it and goes to the ball to dance with the king again. This time the king puts her ring on the girl's finger unnoticed. Again there is a small golden object in the soup, a reel that is supposed to wind up the spun threads. The king has Allerleihrauh fetched and asks who she is. At her bland answer, he takes her hand and sees the ring. The king then recognizes who she is and takes the fur from her, underneath she still wears the blue dress with the stars. Both are now united, and the king asks Lotte to tell him her whole story.
