Wikipedia article
'The Countess Died of Laughter' (German: 'Frau Wirtins tolle Tchterlein', Italian: 'Leva lo diavolo tuo dal... convento') is a 1973 Austrian-Italian sex comedy film directed by Franz Antel. It is the final entry in Franz Antel's series 'Frau Wirtin' and incorporates a great deal of archive footage from earlier films.
Plot
Susanne Delberg (Teri Tordai as Terry Torday) who has become Countess Sderland dies under absurd circumstances. It is revealed that Susanne had a daughter, whom she had named heiress to her inheritance; however, her identity is obscured except for the fact that she was known to have been living in a convent. The handsome executor Vincent van der Straten (Gabriele Tinti) is assigned to the task of uncovering the identity of the heiress. There are five possible candidates: Franoise (Maja Hoppe), Clarissa (Femi Benussi as Femy Benussi), Susanne (Sonja Jeannine), Piroschka (Marika Mindzenthy), and Anselma (Alena Penz). Van der Straten decides to stay at the convent to find the real heiress but things soon prove to be difficult for him since all the candidates happen to be as raunchy as late Susanne.
