The Notorious Daughter of Fanny Hill

When a circus troupe comes to a small, extremely conservative New England town, the residents go to their minister to have him protest the scandalous fact that the female tightrope walker wears a pair of pink tights. When she has an accident and is forced to recuperate at the minister's house, he has to hide her in order to avoid even more of a scandal. Mazie Darton, a high-wire performer with a traveling circus, longs for a peaceful country life. Forced to stay in a small town while laid up with an injury, Darton is spurned by the conservative townspeople. Rev. Jonathon Meek, the local parson, befriends the circus troupe, especially Darton. But he, too, opens himself to criticism from his flock, who protest his closeness with the show people. Eventually, Darton's boyfriend arrives and the pair become closer. The parson fades from the scene as a possible mate for Darton, who ends up winning the hearts of the townspeople.

A retired teacher, his son and his grandson take a road trip to Budapest.

It usually turns out differently than you think. The entrepreneur's daughter Isabella Meinhardt had to experience this when she returned to Germany after studying for years in distant Japan. Her father Friedrich asked her to come home - and Isabella is convinced that she already knows the reason for this: she should take over the management of the traditional Meinhardt automobile works at his side. The shock is all the greater when she learns the real reason for her visit: In front of the assembled crowd, the widowed Friedrich does not announce his collaboration with his daughter, but his engagement to the public prosecutor Viola Kassen. Isabella, who had no idea of the new woman at her father's side, is stunned. She and her father have always had a very distant relationship, and this time Isabella feels ignored by this in two ways. She wants to leave immediately, disappointed and angry. To prevent a break with his daughter, Friedrich gives in. Isabella should get her chance in the company - but she is not allowed to move into the executive suite right away. Like him, she too should get to know the business from the bottom up. The very next day the millionaire's daughter is standing on the assembly line in the production hall under the name Isabell "Isi" Meier, screwing cars together. She walked surprisingly quickly in the unfamiliar environment and found helpful friends among colleagues. On the other hand, she continues to give her future stepmother Viola the cold shoulder, even if she is actually not that unappealing. One day, Isabella meets the development engineer Sebastian Duxner. Although she falls in love with him at first sight, she hides her true identity from him. The young woman enjoys the feeling of being loved for her own sake too much. From him she learns that the Meinhardt-Werke are in a serious financial crisis. Only a new type of hybrid engine developed by Sebastian could save the company from a hostile takeover by a large corporation. But there are influential forces who want to prevent that at all costs. In this situation, Isabella gets the chance to show her father all her talent.
