action
1948: War orphan Tom Sojer grows up with his aunt Polli after the death of his parents. With his best friend Hacke, who lives in a disused railroad car, he hatches out many a prank and robs his aunt of the last nerve. During a night in the cemetery they watch the one-armed crook Ami Joe committing a murder and make sure that the act does not go unpunished.
Filming
“Due to our small budget, we didn't have a large budget to build sets. So I went on a search in southern Germany and Austria. […] The suitable locations were then widely scattered, from the Black Forest to Braunau am Inn and Passau . Our film team was like a traveling circus during the shooting. "
Around a third of the photos were taken in Ortenau in the Black Forest. The school scenes were filmed on three of a total of 45 days of shooting in the Zell-Weierbach school museum , a district of Offenburg . 8 minutes from the raw material were used for the final draft. The former silver mine in Haslach- Schnellingen, the Wenzel mine in Oberwolfach - also an old silver mine - and the Simsonstollen in Kaltbrunn -Wittichen, a former cobalt mine, served as a backdrop for the Teufelshöhle (smugglers' hideout).
The Bahnpark Augsburg served as the backdrop for Hacke's dwelling. The nightly cemetery scenes were filmed at the Catholic Herman cemetery in Augsburg and the old cemetery in Freiburg . The Passau district court was chosen for the final scene.
A MAN E 2 truck , built in 1936, which is still owned by MAN today, was used for the shooting . “It is usually in the company's customer center in Munich and was brought to the location on a low-loader,” said mine manager Karl-Heinz Hund to the Black Forest messenger .
Reviews
“And although Lechner has to do without well-known actors like Heike Makatsch or Benno Fürmann for budget reasons, his detailed version of the American rascal stories shows a lot of charm, local color and a high level of knowledge of an era that is gradually being forgotten. [...] If you want to criticize things that were already evident in Lechner's previous film Toni Goldwascher : the children recruited exclusively from amateur actors inevitably often act a bit awkwardly, some mumbled dialogues would have needed dubbing and would have been one or the other Dramaturgical trick was necessary to give more verve and esprit to the babbling story between railway carriage idyll and campfire romance. "
"The film speaks in the deepest Bavarian dialect and the invited young actors Julia Forstner [...] and Yannik Kuhl [...] are not easy to understand for inexperienced ears."
“Atmospheric, sometimes very exciting film for young people, which relocates the classic novel by Mark Twain from the Mississippi to a small Bavarian town and combines the plot with a chapter of German history in an appealing and insightful way. The dialectal sound coloring is consequently used as a constituent 'local color'. "
