action

The Catholic pastor Karl-Heinz Erdmann (Jürgen von der Lippe) was transferred to the Church as a punishment due to his somewhat sensual interpretation of Christian teaching. His bishop has chosen the remote and godforsaken North Sea island of Soonderney as his place of exile. What Erdmann does not know: For many years no pastor has dared to visit the bizarre islanders. On arrival at his new church, Pastor Erdmann clashes with his opponent, the almost almighty mayor Fredericksen. He's looking for his son Helge. Helge is supposed to undergo the dreaded cod test, which every Soonderneyer boy has to pass before his 13th birthday and therefore fled to church. Erdmann is supported in his attempt to reconcile father and son by the housekeeper Frauke and the sexton Hinner.

Remarks

  • The series was clearly inspired by the Italian film adaptations of the novels about Don Camillo and Peppone by Giovannino Guareschi , but fell far short of viewer expectations and also received very bad reviews. For this reason, the series production was stopped after only two seasons.
  • Jürgen von der Lippe already played a similar role in Pfarrerskluft in the movie Nich 'with Leo (1994).
  • The outdoor shots were shot on the North Sea island of Pellworm . The church is in Beelitz - Kanin . It was built in 1138 from field stones and is the oldest in the Mark Brandenburg
