Hulda is a poor girl from the countryside. She comes to the capital to find work. She takes a job as a maid in a house. The owner is a bachelor member of parliament. The man is called Judge Soratie. Hulda works hard and never loses her common sense. At the same time she starts taking evening classes. She keeps this from her employer. The secrecy goes on for years. In the end she graduates from the university. Then she stands as a candidate in the election. In her speeches she puts forward the rights of women and working people. What is between her and the judge changes in the meantime. Irma Seikkula and Tauno Palo appear in the eighty eight minute film, a Finnish production Valentin Vaala finished in 1937.
