Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Annette (Ursula Grabley) finds herself an overnight millionairess when she inherits a thriving factory town. Rather than assume ownership by right of blood, Annette elects to learn the factory's business from the ground up, thus she takes a job as typist for chairman-of-the-board Bertuch (Max Guelstorff). The remainder of the story is a romantic tug of war as Annette is courted by both Bertuch and humble employee Siebert (Hans Soenker). The musical numbers seem to have been put together on an assembly line and accordingly are performed in the most perfunctory manner possible. Not one of the better German tunefests of the 1930s, Annette Im Paradies still managed to turn a neat profit.
