-Comment: Heinz Christian in buckskin Lederhosen (pictured on left), often shown and a younger boy, barefoot (only this short scene, showing front and back). And some men in Lederhosen. Also Schuplatter dance (one man alone). Also Gustl in nightshirt.

Good Heimatfilm with perfect landscape scenes, cottages and some dramatic elements. Boy is often shown. At the end he is riding on a donkey in Lederhosen. However he is very young and Lederhosen are a bit too big. But could be worse. Good plot, first color version of Ganghofer's famous novel. Directed by Helmut Weiss and starring Rudolf Lenz, Sonja Sutter, Angelika Hauff and Rolf Pinegger. Couldn't find any releases on DVD nor VHS. Although the age of the boy I rate 7. I also have to check the other versions. No clips.

Update: The novel is set in ~1899, but according to the (few) vehicles, this film must be set in the 1950s. However no electric lights in the buildings.
