The maiden Duerthen, an artistically gifted woodcarver, lives together with the estate mangager Thomsen. She suffers from this unfortunate bind, because, in reality, she loves Joachim, the son of the landowner. To escape these entanglements, she accepts the offer of Mrs. Kerstin to come to Berlin to work. But here, too, she finds no fulfillment in her life, as the stupid work bores her. Only upon arriving in Italy does she feel free and can finally begin a life together with Joachim; something she has always wished for.

Die Magd Dürthen, eine künstlerisch begabte Holzschnitzerin, lebt mit dem Gutsverwalter Thomsen zusammen. Sie leidet unter dieser unglücklichen Verbindung, denn eigentlich liebt sie Joachim, den Sohn des Gutsbesitzers. Um diesen Verstrickungen zu entgehen, nimmt sie das Angebot der Kunstgewerblerin Kerstin an, in Berlin zu arbeiten. Doch auch hier findet sie keine Erfüllung, die stupide Arbeit langweilt sie. Erst in Italien fühlt sie sich frei und kann endlich mit Joachim zusammen ein Leben führen, das sie sich immer gewünscht hat.
