Plot:
Twelve-year-old schoolboy Florian Maurer's only consolation as the family had to move from their own home with landlady Moller is his devoted border collie Lassie, the envy of his classmates and defense against the bully. The she meanly invoked the pets ban, so the dog can't stay and moves to the Bavarian estate of Count von Sprengel, which is about to be auctioned off as his ancient glass manufacture went bankrupt, causing Florian's father Andreas Maurer and other staff to be sacked. While Andreas seeks another traditional glassblower job in Jena (Saxony), the count leaves the dog in the care of his uninterested spoiled-rotten but emotionally neglected granddaughter Priscilla, rather then his devoted butler, while the dodgy henchman tries to flog anything of value, including the dog and the count's watch, but is caught out. Priscilla loses Lassie accompanying the count on a business journey to a North Sea island, but the clever canine finds stowaway passage and lifts or runs all the way back south.
