Plot of the movie Silva (1981 film):
The film takes place in France in the first half of the 19th century. The young womanizer and joker Count Bonifacius Cancianu ("Boni") likes to have fun in the company of dancers and singers from the Orpheum variety show and one day decides to introduce his friend Prince Edwin von Wellerheim to the girls.
Unlike "Bonnie," Edwin was not only a twentieth-generation hereditary nobleman, but also an officer who respected discipline and did not visit such vulgar places as the variety show.
Moreover, Edwin treated these singers with disdain and arrogance, considering them empty dolls with whom there was nothing to talk about. However, one of these singers named Silva managed to strike the heart of the young prince so much that he not only changed his attitude towards the variety show, but also fell in love with her at first sight.
Love for Silva made Edwin forget that in three days he was to be engaged to Countess Anastasia von Egenberg, whom his parents insisted on marrying. And the parents, in turn, having learned about his infatuation with Silva, asked Edwin's superior, General von Ronsdorf, to transfer their son to another regiment, away from Silva.

Anticipating such a move on the part of his noble parents, Edwin decides to urgently get engaged to Silva before leaving for another regiment. After the engagement, Edwin is forced to go to his place of service, and Silva learns from "Bonnie" about Edwin's upcoming engagement to another girl.
At first, Silva refuses to believe the famous joker and prankster "Bonnie", but when the Count shows her an engagement invitation from Edwin's father, the girl has no choice but to believe it, and in violation of their engagement agreement, she decides to go on tour to Paris.
In turn, Edwin, having learned from the newspapers about Silva's triumph in Paris, believes that she has violated their engagement agreement and decides to speed up his engagement to Anastasia von Egenberg.
It is not known how this story would have ended if Edwin's father, Prince Leopold von Wellerheim, had not learned that his wife and Edwin's mother, Princess Angilda von Wellerheim, in her wild youth, had herself been a singer in the same variety show in which Silva was now singing...
