The film takes place in Amsterdam. Elisa "Lizzie" Dolittle (Doeluttel) is a poor but cheeky flower seller from the lower class, with a flat Amsterdam accent. When Professor Higgins, a linguist and speech teacher, accidentally bumps into Lizzie, he is shocked by her voice and manner of articulation. He looks down on her and even says that she has no right to exist if she cannot talk like a decent young lady. The next day, Lizzie visits him at his house on the Prinsengracht, seeking diction lessons so that she can work as a saleswoman in a store. Higgins is convinced that the girl has no chance of success, but when Colonel Pickering wagers that he is unable to make her into a proper lady, Higgins cannot resist a challenge and bets Pickering that within three months he will succeed.
