Alois Wimpflinger is the mayor of a village located in the Bavarian Alps. This grumpy but kind-hearted man is happily married to Wally and the happy father of Stefan, himself happily engaged to a charming village girl. All this sounds too idyllic to last and it doesn't! Put the blame on Christine, an unexpected visitor, who happens to be both a beautiful young woman and a talented dancer. All the men go off their heads and all the women lose their temper as soon as they see her. A cute pink little brassiere lost will be the final straw...
