-Comment: Some older boys including teens in long Lederhosen marching with grown-ups. Also one very young boy in Lederhosen and of course older men in Lederhosen, some in short Lederhosen. Also Schuhplattler scenes (grown-ups) incl Dirndl drahn.

Had been aired today. Rare movie and the plot is quite interesting. Directed by Harald Reinl, starring Erich Auer, Elise Aulinger, Willy Rösner and Walter Sedlmayr.

Not sure about the setting, there is also a 1930 movie called "Der Herrgottschnitzer von Oberammergau" which I don't know. Often Ganghofer movies are set in the 1890s but often the plots are timeless. Ganghofer wrote this stage play in 1880.

Rating 4 "only" due to the very few good scenes, but could be worse.
