Having previously discovered such talents as Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman, director Gustav Molander used his Sara Lar Sig Folkvett (Sara Learns Manners) as a showcase for his latest protegee, Tutta Rolf. She is cast as Sara, a good-hearted but hopelessly vulgar servant girl. Though she is a constant embarrassment to her middle-class employers, Sara is so well liked by the members of the household that no one can bear to fire her. When Sara inherits a fortune, she becomes acutely aware of her social shortcomings and sets about to become a "lady." But once she realizes that High Society is populated by phonies and hypocrites, our heroine gives away her money and returns to the people she truly cares about. A neat climactic plot twist allows Sara to have her cake and eat it too.
