action
Castle owner Countess Therese, known by everyone as “Resi”, is a typical representative of the impoverished landed gentry in the mountains. Your impressive building is wildly romantic and beautifully located, but the debts are at least as high as the castle towers. The bailiff has already arrived and is preparing to go under the watchful eyes of lawyer Dr. Altbauer proposed the foreclosure auction of the entire historical inventory. One day the young engineer Thomas Stegmann lands next to the castle grounds in his own helicopter. He has a suggestion in his luggage. He would like to rent the representative property for some time. With the castle in Tyrol, Stegmann wants to offer an appropriate framework for upcoming business negotiations with the wealthy American investor and businessman Mr. Hover and, by the way, pretend that the magnificent building is his own. Stegmann has a further development of the engine that is operated by him and is revolutionizing helicopter technology, but he lacks a financially powerful business partner for market readiness. For the Countess, the appearance of Stegmann seems like a lifeline, because the rental income for the castle would mean last-minute rescue for her. There is, however, a small problem. Thomas is interested in the entire castle and all of it, not just the bare shell. And this also means the servants of the castle as well as the entire historical inventory that is about to come under the hammer.
Countess Therese, who Thomas has taken to be a maid since he saw her milk a cow on his arrival, he doesn't need, however, because Stegmann's own girlfriend and fiancé, the equally blonde and cocky Gloria, a vain mannequin, should take on this role. Resi's friends and employees as well as the creditors of the indebted lady of the castle are ready to play along in this charade to help Therese save the castle. Resi tries to get as much money out of Thomas as possible and demands that he not rent her castle for just a few days. More than enthusiastic about the property, he loudly offers to want the castle for a whole year - provided that the deal with Mr. Hover works, because then, the engineer believes, he will be financially made man. Hover, however, turns out to be a rather bankrupt foreign German who was driven back to Europe by his love of home. He immediately falls in love with the good postmaster Sophie. After this bust of a broken dream, Resi sees no more chance of saving her castle. The great coincidence that is typical of films, however, wants Stegmann to get to know some representatives of the “United Motor Works”, who finally give him the chance to sign a contract worth millions. After Thomas found out that Resi is more than just a simple cow girl or domestic servant, these two lovers also find each other and, conveniently, the castle in Tyrol already has a place to stay for their future love happiness.
