What happens
The Forester of the Silver Wood (German: Der Förster vom Silberwald) is a 1954 Austrian-West German drama film directed by Alfons Stummer and starring Anita Gutwell, Rudolf Lenz and Karl Ehmann. It is part of the post-war trend of heimatfilm set in rural Austria or southern Germany. It was a popular success, leading to several follow-up films with the same lead actors including The Poacher of the Silver Wood. In Austria it was released as Echo of the Mountains (German: Echo der Berge). It was shot at the Sievering Studios in Vienna with location shooting in Salzburg and the Tyrol. The film's sets were designed by the art director Eduard Stolba. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
