What happens
The Rebel (German: Der Rebell) is a 1932 German historical drama film directed by Curtis Bernhardt, Edwin H. Knopf, and Luis Trenker and starring Trenker, Luise Ullrich, and Victor Varconi. The film's art direction was by Fritz Maurischat. A separate English language version, The Rebel, was released the following year. The film is part of the mountain film genre. Trenker stated that the film's plotline of a Tyrolean mountaineer, Severin Anderlan, leading a revolt against occupying French forces in 1809, during the Napoleonic Wars. Andreas Hofer, the noted Tirolean patriot, was a proto-type of "Severin Anderlan" (both died in the same year). Trenker was designed to mirror what was happening in contemporary Germany, as it rejected the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. In 1933 Luis Trenker's novel Der Rebell. Ein Freiheitsroman aus den Bergen Tirols was published. Trenker later made a second film about the Tyrolean Rebellion The Fire Devil in 1940. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
