Shop Girls of Paris
Au bonheur des dames
Denise Baudu, an orphaned girl in need, decides to go to Paris where her uncle Baudu keeps a small draper's shop, 'Le Vieil Elbeuf'. The young woman hopes her kinsman will be able to give her a position. Unfortunately Octave Mouret, Baudu's visionary competitor, has just opened a giant department store nearby, 'Au Bonheur des dames', which now attracts customers like a magnet. Denise, realizing that 'Le Vieil Elbeuf' is dying away, crosses the street to offer her services to Octave Mouret...
