As Nazism takes over Austria, a governess and a widowed father fall in love and escape the country with his large family of musically-talented children.

In this true-life story, Julie Andrews lights up the screen as Maria, a spirited young woman who leaves the convent to bring love and music to the home of Captain von Trapp and his seven children.
