The Flower Woman from Potsdamer Platz is a German silent film folk play from 1925 by Jaap Speyer .

action

The story is like a Berlin folk play. A lively shoeshine boy from Potsdamer Platz has a night out with a laid-back girl who has a rather dubious reputation. He can't foot the bill in a nightspot, but he's lucky that a friend stands in for him. It is about the worker August Mahnke, whose wife Trude is the (eponymous) flower woman from Potsdamer Platz, a Berlin original. She gets this action down the wrong track and after some back and forth wants to divorce her husband. The shoeshine boy does a lot to reconcile the couple.
