Plot

Act I

Ellen and Harry the young and rich American couple arrive to Napoli as tourists. Aranyvirág, a girl from Napoli, makes an agreement with Ellen for them to swap places for a day. Beppo, the boyfrend of Aranyvirág, accept the idea and invites Ellen to the Marriners Festival.

At first, Aranyvirág likes the comfortable life of American tourists. But when she hears the music at the festival she begins to miss her friends. She invites them to the International Hotel and says that she is one of them, but Beppo and his friends reject her. After this shame she wants to leave, but Harry stop her and tells her that he's fallen in love with her.
