action
Ursula Diewen, the daughter of the Hamburg entrepreneur Ernst Diewen, promises her father on his deathbed that she will marry the businessman Heinrich Heinsius in order to run the company with him. The following year, while preparing for the wedding, Ursula found out from her friend Martha Detleffsen that her fiancé had an illegitimate child and that his mother was still in a relationship. Ursula then gives Heinrich Heinsius the pass.
Ursula is looking for relaxation in Süderhof in the Lüneburg Heath with Mrs. Alslev, with whom her deceased mother often lived. When she was visiting the pastor couple Sunneby, she met the son of her landlady, the Heideschulmeister Uwe Karsten Alslev. It soon turns out that she shares with him a love of music and painting. So it doesn't take long before the two get closer.
Jan, a depraved fellow, lives in a hut remote from the village. His sick daughter Lenchen lives with him and is grossly neglected by her single father. Ursula takes care of the child. In doing so, she came up with the idea of setting up an Ernst Diewen Foundation. Their task is supposed to be to build a hospital in the heath for people in need.
Martha Detleffsen's son Hänschen comes to the childless Sunneby couple through Ursula's mediation. The rumor soon spread in Süderhof that Hänschen was Ursula's child and that she only came to the heath to find a substitute father for her child in the teacher. When the gossip becomes more and more unbearable, Ursula returns to Hamburg. There she devotes herself to painting again. A number of works of art are created with motifs from the Lüneburg Heath. She presented her paintings to the public at an exhibition with great success.
With the support of her brother Ludwig, Ursula initiates measures for the planned foundation. In a few weeks, Ludwig is supposed to marry Ellen Vanlos, a daughter of the honorable Senator Vanlos. He himself has his eye on Ursula; but when he proposes to her, she rejects him because the heath schoolmaster is still haunting her head. But only the message from the pastor that Uwe Karsten was seriously injured while rescuing Jan from a burning barn did Ursula return to him. Soon the two step in front of the altar, although this improper marriage is a thorn in the side of Ursula's noble family. There are still a few setbacks afterwards, but at the end of the film all problems dissipate in favor.

criticism
The lexicon of international films doesn't think much of the flick: “Heimatfilm with heart, pain and nobility. Updated film version of the popular trivial novel by Felicitas Rose at the turn of the century. "
