A castle lost in the middle of the woods. A train track cutting through the countryside. No train ever stops at the tiny station that serves the castle. A young woman, with paralysed legs, spends her time watching out for the train's passing. One day, the train stops and a young man gets out. He seems to know the place. What did he come to do ?
In this film, the people of a Tyrolean town climb up into the nearby mountains, searching for a place where they can hold a picnic and a spring festival: ideally, a place where they can eventually erect dwellings and cultivate crops. Led by the local nobleman (Arthur Ehrens), they find an appropriate spot, and the festivities begin. Some children briefly perform a charming folk dance. Suddenly the Rübezahl arrives and threatens to kill all the townsfolk if they don't leave immediately.
