Julie Andrews stars as Maria, an Austrian nun who regularly misses her morning prayers to sing to the hills. The Mother Superior sends Maria to be governess for the children of the widowed Captain Von Trapp. Maria discovers that her new boss is cold and aloof, and his seven children virtual automatons. Maria bonds with the children, especially Liesl. Maria falls in love with the Captain and rushes back to the Abbey since the Baron engaged to a baroness. The children insist that Maria return, the Baroness steps out of the picture. Maria and the Captain confirm their love in song. They return from their honeymoon after the Nazis enter Austria. Swastikas are hanging on the Von Trapp ancestral home, and Liesl's boyfriend has become a Nazi. Worst of all, the Baron is called to active duty in the service of the Fuhrer. He makes plans for them to escape Austria.
