Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of romantics and people who like stories about real, flawed people. One to watch when you can give it your full attention.
The mood
Warm and romantic.
The pace
Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 34 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1976: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

The young Count Ettingen leads a dissolute life in Munich with the demanding Baroness Prankha at his side. To finance his life, he has his uncle cut down the forests in his estate without caring about the consequences. When he catches his girlfriend having an affair, however, he retreats to the mountains. From the young alpine dairymaid Lore he learns about another side of life and wants to stop the overexploitation of the forest. But the baroness still wants his money.
