action

The elderly Richard Ferner had to flee his Tyrolean homeland because of a youthful misconduct and made it to the mine owner in his self-chosen exile in Africa. Now, after a decade-long absence, he is returning to his home town, where he once stole from his boss as a teenager. Here he meets Dorothee Attinger again, who now lives in the forester's house. She is a now paralyzed forester widow and mother of two grown children. Dorothee was the victim of Richard's decision at the time, because she was betrothed to him at the time and was shamefully left behind by him without explanation during his hasty escape. Furthermore, he can soon do something to ease his guilty conscience towards Dorothee.

By chance he becomes an ear-witness of a dispute between Dorothees daughter Maria and her younger son Alfons. That very young man found a jewelery box and, following advice from the villainous bicycle dealer Brugg, kept it for himself. Now Alfons is threatened with the same fate as Richard once did, because the Attinger Filius has already silvered some of the found goods. Richard absolutely wants to prevent Alfons, whose act is the result of young people's lack of need, from getting on the wrong track and also deciding to flee into the distance. Maria is also in need, albeit of a more sentimental nature. She loves the hotelier's son Michael Reimer, but that doesn't suit his gnarled, beefy old man at all. Out of a feeling of guilt and old love for Dorothee, Ferner also intervenes here with a helping hand and can clear up many a misunderstanding so that the two lovers can find each other again in front of the altar.
