The girl from the ballet is a German silent film by Ernst Lubitsch from 1918. It is one of the director's lost films.
content
At the princely court theater in Dillingen, the new director, Dr. Heels set. He is not only attractive, but also a bachelor, which delights the women of the place. But all of a sudden the men of the town also showed a leaning towards the theater, as a new prima ballerina was hired in the dancer Ossi. Prince Adolf himself is enthusiastic about Ossi and does not miss any of her appearances.
The envious are not long in coming, especially the president of the women's association in Dillingen is suspicious of the current events. This is hardly surprising, as an unwritten law in Dillingen says that the prima ballerina of the theater must be married. This comes Ossi and Dr. Heels on the other hand, have both met secretly for a long time. The marriage is decided quickly. The couple's only downer is that the Dillinger's interest in art has suddenly disappeared.
