The sculptor Andreas promised his seriously ill childhood friend before her death that he would take care of her daughter Heidemarie. While his application for custody is going through the authorities, the young girl comes to her uncle and his wife. Both treat Heidemarie badly so she spends most of the time with Andreas and the hunchback beggar boy Peter. Finally, the time has come: Andreas is granted custody and also takes Peter in with him.

Heidemarie is a 1956 Swiss-French home film directed by Hermann Kugelstadt (highly German version) starring Gustav Knuth, Hannes Schmidhauser and Eveline Grüneisen. The story is based on the novels "Die braudige Heidemarie" (1872) and "Wie Wieseli sein Weg erfolgt" (1878) by Johanna Spyri.
