The sinful village is a German feature film from the series Der Komödienstadel by director Olf Fischer from 1974. It is the fourth film adaptation of the Schwank of the same name by Max Neal . This Schwank is one of the most played Bavarian comedies ever and has been filmed several times.
action
When Sepp, the son of the farmer Thomas and Therese Stangassinger, and Vevi, the alleged daughter of the Sägfeiler Korbinian, want to get married, Thomas wants to prevent this because he is Vevi's father. When Vogelhuber brings his daughter Afra into play, a solution seems to arise if Sepp would marry her instead of Vevi. But this path is also blocked several times. The problem is finally solved in a tricky way, but in contrast to the first two films, it is more believable.
Stage design
The film is a recording of a theatrical performance with a fixed set showing a farmhouse parlor. Exterior shots are not included; In general, the effort compared to the first two films is greatly reduced. Character actors like Ludwig Schmid-Wildy can shine in the quieter settings. In this film adaptation, all actors speak the same dialect, which makes the dialogues look much more natural.
