action

A boarding school for boys in the early 1950s. The boys walk in lockstep in the mountains, a happy song on their lips, and in the evening they play a prank on the teacher again. He falls into a lake and the next day, exasperated, quits his job. Again the bullies pissed off a teacher, and this is not the first drummer this boarding class has driven from the school. Boarding school director Dr. Franke wants to try it with a teacher and for this reason invites Miss. Maria Hofer a. The strict but at the same time understanding educator hopes that the louts across the street will show their chevaleresque side to a young lady. Dr. Hofer previously taught at a monastery school and was used to a completely different student body. She is also much younger than all the ossified teachers at the boarding school. Franke sincerely hopes that she knows how to deal with young, rebellious people. But their old boys appearance, which may be just right for a Catholic convent school, consider the cheeky boys to be clearly in need of improvement, and so the unruly students put the Miss Doctor to the test by mocking their old boys Mary Poppins look, in order to send her suggestions for improving her visual appearance in a letter.

In order not to get caught up in this right away, the writing student Cicero, who is also top of the class, makes it appear as if the letter was coming from the sports teacher Dr. Hans Klinger, type of dumb nut with muscles. At the end of every letter, the little nerd leaves a PS in which he makes specific suggestions for a different hairstyle or a fancier dress or more fashionable shoes and stockings. Amazingly, Maria Hofer takes this advice to heart, and so the gray mouse, the Miss Doctor who is actually beloved by the students, turns into a handsome, modern young woman. Maria's self-confidence is strengthened as well as the interest of the advanced sports teacher, because Klinger likes the new Maria Hofer much better than the old one. But Klinger, who seems to have a lot more in his arms and legs than in his head, takes a long time before he is clear about his feelings for the young colleague, especially since he has no idea that alleged letters he wrote are in the Circulation of the boarding school are. It was only when the cleverly clever Cicero threatened to fall in love with his new teacher for a short time and Maria Hofer, after the truth about the letters had come to light, ran off, hurt, that Klinger got going. It comes to the usual happy ending: The two dumb teachers finally become a couple.
