Who hasn't practised their musical notes singing the song that Julie Andrews uses to distract the von Trapp children? Austria, 1938. Maria is a nun who leaves the abbey to become governess to the seven children of a retired military officer, Captain von Trapp. The von Trapp house functions as a barracks, but Maria brings joy back to the children and wins their affection through music.
