action
At a party, Marie's mother dies while dancing in the presence of her daughter. When the maid Liese tells his father about the death of his wife, he is deeply sad.
After some time has passed, the father brings a new wife, Therese and her spoiled daughter Clothilde home with him from a business trip. He succumbs to her beauty and tries so hard to please her that he is downright blinded when it comes to the treatment of Marie. Marie is demoted to Cinderella by her stepmother Therese and her daughter Clothilde. From then on, after the maid Liese was dismissed by her stepmother in an argument with Clothilde, she has to do all work, no matter how downcast. Marie's father wants to bring something back to her and her stepsister from his upcoming business trip. Clothilde would like a dress made of a very special fabric, but Marie only wants a hazelnut tree , which she then plants on her mother's grave. This develops splendidly and quickly becomes large and strong.
A few years later, the royal court deals with the succession of the late king. Prince Alfons manages the affairs of state for the underage Prince Leonhard. The quirky prince only has his carp on his mind, whose welfare is more important to him. It even goes so far that he wants to crown his favorite carp king. To prevent this, the young prince has to be married by the end of his 21st birthday. To find the right bride, three court balls are held. The prince and his friend Count Peter personally bring Marie and Clothilde an invitation, swapping their roles so that Marie assumes he is the prince's servant when Leonhard pretends to be. The prince wants to be loved for himself and not just because he is the prince. Marie immediately falls in love with the supposed servant and the prince is also strongly drawn to her.
Cinderella asks her stepmother to be allowed to go to the ball. She agrees, but demands that Marie clean the whole kitchen sparkling clean. Marie manages, but the stepmother and Clothilde pour peas and lentils into the ashes. Marie should get these separately from the ashes. She can only go if she can do it in time. In fact, Marie succeeds in the almost impossible, she completes the task within the time given by Therese. The fact that she is actively supported by the pigeons remains her secret. Although the stepmother and Clothilde are impressed, they say Marie cannot come because she doesn't have a dance dress. Therefore, she is not allowed to go to the ball and is left alone. The young woman then rushes to her mother's grave. Here she lets her tears run wild and suddenly gets a beautiful ball gown with matching shoes from the hazelnut tree on which a pigeon is cooing. Thanks to the magical power of the hazelnut tree, Marie gets a beautiful dress with matching shoes at the next ball, and a little mouse that saved the girl's life turns into a proud white horse every time. Since she has been warned to always be back at midnight, Marie always disappears abruptly shortly before midnight, leaving the prince, who has long been charmed by her, at a loss. When the third and last evening of the ball came, Marie managed to steal to the grave as a precaution, after she was locked in and to speak the magical words: "Little tree, shake yourself and shake yourself, throw gold and silver over me". This time she gets an even nicer ball gown and silver shoes. On the previous ball days, Clothilde always believed that the mysterious girl who dances with the prince was Marie. That evening she convinces Therese and the two chase away Marie, who loses one of her shoes on the stairs painted with pitch while fleeing.
The prince, who desperately wants to find the girl to whom the shoe belongs, issues a corresponding decree and rides himself out with his friend Count Peter to find out who is wearing the shoe. So he comes to the court of the wicked stepmother. Marie locked them up after she wanted to see the prince to show who she really is, on the grounds that the prince also loves her so much. When asked about the daughters of the house, Marie denies them. She wants to see Clothilde as the future wife of the prince and future queen. To do this, she doesn't shy away from chopping off a piece of the poor girl's heel so that Clothilde's foot can fit into the shoe the prince is handing her. Although the shoe now fits, the prince is not at all satisfied. When Therese reminds him of his promise, the prince suddenly hears a pigeon cooing: “Jerk the guh, jerk the guh, there is blood in the shoe. The shoe is too small, the right bride is still at home. "
In order to determine the correct measure of Cinderella's foot, the stepmother had taken her wooden shoe and then carelessly and hastily tossed it into the open fire. The fire flared up and could no longer be brought under control, so that suddenly the entire house is on fire. Prince Leonhard clearly hears a voice calling, a very familiar voice, and storms into the burning house and comes back outside with Marie in his arms. The prince has finally found his princess and Marie happily gives him her yes. Stepmother Therese, stepsister Clothilde and also Marie's father are condemned to look after the beloved carp of the quirky Prince Alfons in the future.
