Plot

Susanne Delberg, who has become Countess Süderland, dies under absurd circumstances. It is revealed that Susanne had a daughter, whom she had named heiress to her inheritance. However, the only thing known about the heiress's identity is that she lives in a convent. Handsome executor Vincent van der Straten is tasked with uncovering her identity. There are five possible candidates: Françoise, Clarissa, Susanne , Piroschka, and Anselma. Van der Straten decides to stay at the convent to find the real heiress but things soon prove to be difficult for him since all the candidates happen to be just as raunchy as the late Susanne.
