Breathtaking landscapes, centuries-old traditions and a rich animal kingdom. The highest low mountain range in Germany has much more to offer than just a Bollenhut and a cuckoo clock. The Black Forest is a natural idyll in the heart of Europe. The film portrays the rich natural world of the Black Forest in opulent, atmospheric pictures. It shows how deer, stags, birds and other animals revel in the lush late summer, how they come over the snowy winter and how they rejoice in the blossoming spring. We experience a Black Forest in which nature plays a major role and people in many places have found a way to harmoniously combine tradition and modernity.
