The Puss in Boots is a German fairy tale film from 1955. It is based on the Grimm fairy tale The Puss in Boots .
action
The legacy of the late miller is taken over by his eldest son Franz. Franz's younger brother - Heinrich - only has the cat Hinz.
Heinrich later notices that the cat (Hinz) can walk and speak on two legs. Hinz asks the miller's son to buy him a pair of boots. Then he will thank him with happiness and wealth. He gets the boots.
Puss in Boots wanders into the kingdom of King Wonnebald and his daughter Rosine. There he talks about his rich and attractive master, the "Count Carabas" (Heinrich). The king and his daughter are curious and visit the "Count".
By cunning, the cat quickly found a noble home for the miller's son Heinrich - a knight's castle - whose owner - the evil magician Saufdichvoll - was tricked by him.
