Cornelia is a respectable but prudish teacher in a girls' school by day and at night a performer in nightclubs. She has only taken this second job in order to raise money to help her family, but keeps it secret from both them and her headmaster. Cornelia falls in love with a young composer and accompanies him on a tour of the Italian resorts, where she encounters her headmaster who is there attending a conference.
