Schwarzwaldmädel is a musical film produced by Wolfgang Liebeneiner for the Second German Television from 1973 with the Wagner singer Wolfgang Windgassen and the American soprano Janet Perry and Dick Laan in the leading roles. The television version is only a slightly shortened version of the operetta of the same name by Leon Jessel (music) and August Neidhart ( libretto ).
action
On their hike, the two friends Hans and Richard arrive on the eve of Cecilia Day in the Black Forest village of Sankt Christoph , where they find accommodation in the house of the respected cathedral music director Blasius Römer. There they meet his employee Bärbele, who is in love with Blasius Römer.
A little later, the attractive Malwine, who is after Hans, arrives in the village from Berlin. On the dance evening of the Cäcilienfest, however, Malwine is rejected by Hans, who opts for Bärbele, who is shunned by the local people as the niece of the 'witch', who is decried as a 'witch'. Instead, Malwine and Richard find themselves together while the aging cathedral music director Römer withdraws to concentrate fully on his music.
