13 Kislany Mosolyog az Egre (13 Girls Smile at the Sky) was adapted from a novel by Otto Indig. Billed as an "optimistic film" (a commodity much in demand in the troubled Europe of the late 1930s), the story concerns 13 pretty high-school graduates who go into the world vowing to perform at least one good deed per week. The 13th girl is Piry (Ida Turay), who comes to the aid of an impoverished pushcart peddler, establishing him in his own prosperous ice-cream business. What Piry doesn't know is that the seedy peddler is actually a millionaire -- and since he's suffering from amnesia, he doesn't know either! When he recovers his memory, our hero decides not to reveal his true identity for fear of losing Piry's love. The rest of the film practically writes itself.
