In the 1800s, the villagers of Tolzbad live in fear of triggering avalanches, their quiet conversations and cautious movements a reflection of the repressed emotions that simmer beneath the surface. Two parallel stories unfold, each a tale of forbidden love: Johann, a butler, harbors a secret passion for his mother, while Klara is torn between her attraction to her father and his own desires for her sister. As tensions rise, duels and tragic plunges become a deadly reality, all set against the backdrop of a beautifully crafted, early German silent film, complete with intertitles, crackly sound effects, and stunning hand-tinted color.
Careful
In a 19th century mountain village, simmering desires and forbidden passions threaten to unleash a deadly avalanche of love triangles, where one wrong move could have devastating consequences.
