(Narrator) In the wild Giant Mountains
lives since ancient times a mountain spirit.
He protects caves and rocks,
Swamps and forests
and prevails over wind and storm.
He helps some people in need.
Others, he plays rough pranks.
(Neigh)
Whoever ever stirs his anger out of recklessness,
he regrets it in the end.
Run.
His name is Rübezahl.
(Soft music)
Rübezahl's sweetheart

(Wolf howls.)
Oh...
(Narrator) Wanderer, are you coming to those mountains,
so remember:
The mountain spirit can be anywhere.
In the murmur of the stream,
in the shade of a tree,
in the crow on a tree top or in the clouds,
that pull over the sky.
Why does she have to party up there?
I can not anymore.
But we have to go further, we are already too late.

Pink Baroness of Harrant
Hurry, the gentlemen are coming.
Not so slow.
Kl?rchen, go.
Come on, will you soon? Pink, fast.
Frieder. Sch, sch.
Alas, not everything is gold in town.
Look around, this area is gorgeous.
Take a seat. Here you go.
Thank you.
(Playful flute music)
(Graf) Such a picnic in the countryside.
Very fabulous, dear lady of Harrant.
What luck that it does not rain on your birthday.
It could not be better. - Except it thundered.
I think the weather god is well disposed to me today.
Dear guests, thank you,
that you are my birthday
you have climbed to these airy heights.
Very much. Nice to enjoy the afternoon with you.
On your well, Baroness, on your birthday.
On you.
Muscatel.
Is good for the heart. - You must know it as a medic.
Anyway, a fabulous vintage.
Baroness.
What a feast.
(laugh) Access to your heart's content.
Dear Lady of Harrant,
it's not just the nature that brought you here.
It is rumored that she is broke. (He laughs softly)
Nature offers many possibilities.
You can hunt, fell trees.
Build a sawmill. Get work in this area.
I see, you have ideas, Mrs. Baroness.
A sawmill? Fabulous.
(Smacking) Wood is a worthwhile business.
Invest with me. That would be superior.
(Quiet thunder pulls up.)
Oh. It is raising a storm.
(Wolf growls softly.)
I said so.
(Doctor) Baroness.
By the way, you know
that there is a huge pot of gold over there in the mountain?
A pot of gold?
The meltwater rinses tiny gold lumps in the valley in the spring.
Oh yes? Yes.
And why has not yet raised this pot of gold yet?
(Embarrassed humming)
(Wolf growls evilly.)
Because the treasure belongs to the mountain spirit.
(Fairytale music)
Who asked you?
(Pastor) She means Rübezahl.
Rübezahl?
The mountain spirit.
(She laughs heartily) You do not believe in ghosts.
Yes, but.
(stammering) No, of course not.
There is more between heaven and earth than we imagine.
A mountain spirit, then.
I want to see him.
Rübezahl, come and celebrate my birthday with me!
Stop it, Baroness. Or are you a coward?
(Wolf growls.) (Baroness laughs.)
Mountain Spirit, who pretends to be, show yourself!
(Haunting laugh) (Ominous music)
Pack everything together quickly. Geschwind!
(They scream and shout.)
(Dancing violin music) My stole.
(Graf) My wig!
(Count) Come, Baroness!
(Happy laugh)
(Clara) Phew.
That was a very stormy party.
The baroness must be crazy that she so offended Rübezahl.
I'm still hungry. I have something for you.
Look here.
Thank you. Frieder.
I have bread.
Thank you.
My heart.
My heart is gone. I have lost my heart.
(Frieder) Who knows where you lost it?
You will not find that anymore. I only have that from Erik.
Rosa, come, that's no use.
That's the fault of this turnip number.
I did not do anything to him.
Still, what if he hears you? I do not care.
(Soft music)
(Birds chirp.) (Peacock screams.)
This is exactly where the sawmill will stand.
And this forest will be cleared by the end of the year.
You have long convinced me, Ottilie.
You will not regret it, my dear Franz.
Your money is well spent.
(She sighs.)
We will make a fortune. Fabulous.
And your charming wife will surely be happy about a present.
(She coughs.)
(Horse neighs)
(Exciting music)
What are you doing here?
The fresh air is good for me. Fresh air?
So so. Yes.
It's so beautiful here in the forest.
You can watch the woodpecker feeding his cubs.
(She coughs.) You watch birds?
Yes. (Horse harness rattles.)
What's this?
Brushing up is the right of the poor people.
The former administrator has probably tolerated.
From now on, collecting wood is prohibited.
But... Do I find you stealing again in my forest,
you will regret that bitterly.
(Kl?rchen) Now she shines again.
It must be wonderful to sleep in such sheets.
You can dream about it beautifully.
Yes...
That Frieder and I would not have to work as a servant and maid.
I would also sleep on straw sacks,
if we could live together after the wedding.
I do not hear anything from my Erik.
He wanted to be back last fall.
Now spring is almost over. I know.
You are worried, right?
At least he could write.
Right.
Sometimes I think... What?
Nothing. (Wind whistles.)
Fast, the laundry.
(Prancing music)
Shit, damn me.
May I help you?
Extremely elegant.
Is it your? Of course not.
She belongs to my mistress. Aha.
But what are you doing there?
So she dries faster.
Dust dry.
Thanks for catching her.
Otherwise there would have been more trouble. Thank you.
More trouble? Yes we...
We did not find any ripe strawberries.
You just have to know where to look.
Come along, I know a lot about the forest.
Hm?
(Prancing violin sounds)
They were all green before.
And now? Are they red.
Then we must have been in a different place.
I have no basket.
Thank you very much.
Try the.
(relish) Mmh.
You are cute.
Thank you very much.
What is your name?
Montanus. My name is Montanus. And you?
My name is... No, let me guess.
You want to guess my name? Yes.
Pink. I think your name is Rosa.
How do you know?
Well, roses are beautiful.
Just like you.
Maybe I have thorns too. May be.
But does not that make it all the more exciting?
Come over! (Horse neighs)
That's the mistress. She is hunting.
Again.
Well, it's her forest.
The forest belongs to the animals and the mountain spirit.
Stop me with this mountain spirit.
Why?
Because he is a gross log, and a plague.
So?
So you think about him.
Yes.
Do not you?
The mountain spirit protects the forest and the animals.
He can not always be friendly.
Sometimes, when people do not deserve it,
he becomes a storm.
Goodbye, Montanus.
Goodbye, Rosa.
More quickly. Run!
(Horse neighs) Ho, ho.
After him!
(Fast-paced music)
More quickly.
(Threatening growl)
(Wolf whines.)
Oh no.
That... I did not want that.
Thank god, you live.
What do you think? It is not allowed to hunt.
Allowed?
This is my forest.
And anyway,
what does a foreign hunter have to do on my land?
The wolf... Did you want him too?
I am the wolf.
And I wanted to thank you for inviting me to your birthday.
To my... It was my pleasure.
I had so much fun like not for a long time.
Rübezahl.
(Frieder) And? Did you catch him?
See. There.
(Wolf growls threateningly.) (She moans.)
(Chattering geese)
(Barking cough)
(She groans.)
Mother.
You should not do that. Pink.
How nice to see you, child.
Your cough has gotten worse. Come, I'll bring you in.
I need the wood for cooking.
But I do not want you to feel cold.
Besides, you do not have to cook today.
I brought you millet porridge.
From today noon.
You saved that from the mouth.
Eat, you are sick. (Hisses, croaks)
You do not carry the pendant anymore.
Did you finally knock the Erik out of your head?
No.
If he is a cobbler, he will come back. He promised.
And then we marry.
This good-for-nothing only disappoints you.
He does not keep his fingers off gambling.
He'll take you to the beggar, Rosa.
Please eat. (Noise)
(Peaceful Music)
Can you take me to the village? - Hop on.
(Crow croaks.)
(Boy) Oh, my apple. (Kids laugh.)
Thank you.
(Swineherd) Come on, come on.
Come on, come on.
(Man) Now it's your turn.
(2nd man) Hello. I have two.
Very beautiful.
Oh my god.
A victory with two hits.
Everything out of the hat.
New assignment? Yes.
Two. Count me in.
Two. Two.
(Erik) Hello, gentlemen.
Do you still need a husband?
It depends.
We play for money.
Would you dare to do something, young man?
My name is Erik.
And I'm there.
(Disapproving hum)
(1st player) Now it's my turn.
(Roll)
Haha.
Five. Five in one go.
Erik, show me what you can do.
(Players hum humbly.)
Not bad.
You're not playing for the first time, huh?
Yes.
I raise the stake.
(Money strums.)
(1st player) Listen, listen.
(2nd player) I'm not playing anymore.
Now the fun really starts.
Oh. - I double.
Then I'm out.
Yes.
(1st player) Not a bad throw.
Lucky. Revenge?
(Fairytale music)
Beer for my friends.
(all) Oh... (Money strums.)
(all) Oh.
Ten on victory. Your decision.
(Dramatic music)
(Magic noise)
No... The train is wrong.
Let's stop. You should not lose everything.
No. Nothing ventured nothing gained.
One last game. I put everything I have.
And you put everything you took from me.
Because of me.
(Dark music)
Eight. (People whisper.)
Eight.
(Woman) Bravo. Well done.
(Cone rumble.) A draw.
(Crowd is murmuring) (Man) So lucky.
(Woman) Look at this.
That's not right.
You call me a wrong player?
No. I'm sorry... I'm sorry.
Only one more game. You're welcome.
From whose money would you like to pay? Lend me something.
- Me? No.
You thought you had an easy time with us.
It's the other way around.
(1st player) Poor wretch.
Stop.
Wait. I am ruined!
You have to help me.
I give you the cones.
Au.
It is not broken.
One, two days rest, and this beautiful foot is like new again.
This story about Rübezahl...
I know you do not believe in him.
But now maybe I disagree.
Oh yes?
In the forest has a hunter
transformed into a wolf before my eyes.
Aha.
And the story with the Goldberg is also true.
Nobody found an access so far.
In order to get into the mountain, it would take the Springwurz.
The what? Have you never heard of the magical colourfull?
Should I?
Every wall, every iron, every rock, no matter how strong, can open it.
And seal again. No.
Yes.
For years I have been looking for the plant.
But only Rübezahl knows where it grows.
Look at one.
(Kl?rchen) What does he look like, your hunter? Daring?
(They laugh.) Yes. Do not laugh.
And somehow mysterious.
You did not fall for him?
No. What makes you think that? I do not believe you.
I've never met anyone like him.
But that does not mean that I fall in love immediately.
Maybe it's a sign that you're losing Erik's necklace.
You're crazy.
(Music of the Neck)
Slowly I think he does not want me anymore.
What if he has another?
(Kl?rchen) You have another one now.
Clara.
(chuckling) Come on.
(Sad guitar sounds)
(Trader) Rauf with it.
Hey, watch out.
Erik is back. - Erik.
You're back. - (boy) Erik.
(Erik) Hey. - Oh, finally.
N / A? - Did you bring us something?
The father will be happy.
(Beat)
(Boy) Erik.
You're back. - (Master) Erik.
For God's sake, what is?
Are you among the robbers?
(Erik) Robber?
Oh yeah.
But it was only one.
Only one.
And that was myself. - What are you talking about?
Did you drink? - I do not drink, master.
I was good. Even very good.
I have sold them all, the whole Kiepe full.
All your beautiful shoes.
Of course you have that. Nobody sells as well as you.
What is it?
The purse was full.
I was proud.
That was the last thing I could do for you.
After three good years.
And I thought,
I take my pay, go back home...
Back to my pink. - Yes, but.
You have my blessing, so it was settled.
Tell me why you stand here,
as if the devil had chased you into the Bockhorn.
The...
That was not settled.
A cone? What shoud that?
Can play well with it.
Most fall when I throw, but not enough.
It's never enough for me anyway.
Another game and another game.
First my money, then yours, the whole money sack. Always more.
Do you understand me?
Spiked and squandered.
(Master) I'm cold.
Tell me...
What should I live on now?
I swear by the cross of all saints, I touch no cone.
In this life.
I swear.
With my blood.
Do you see?
That reminds me all the time.
I do not leave this workshop,
until my debt is paid.
Even if it costs me a whole year.
And what about Rosa? What is with the?
Who loves you, stays alone, right?
(Sad music)
Here.
Here, take the chain.
Take the chain as a pledge.
I do not have something more valuable.
And do not give it back to me ahead of time.
Get to work.
(Door falls into the lock.)
Nice sweet, the strawberries.
Not true? Especially for the season.
(Baroness smiles.)
Rosa, on my birthday you lost my mirror in the storm.
Go and see. He has to lie somewhere.
Very well.
Oh, Rosa, on the occasion...
Can a man look in the forest,
who pretends to be a hunter...
A hunter?
You know him?
We met.
So, ask him what he is doing.
Certainly nothing wrong, Mrs. Baroness.
I'm not sure about this. Especially if he is a hunter.
Test him. Ask him questions.
What questions? Heavy questions.
Questions that only a hunter can answer.
I wrote you some.
But nobody can know that. Do what I tell you.
One more thing, Rosa.
I caught your mother stealing wood.
Wood? She only collects some brushwood. She steals.
And if I let it go, I'll be poor soon.
Excuse me, please.
If it does not happen again.
(Wolf howls.)
(Fairytale music) (Wolf howls.)
(Birds flutter up.)
Montanus?
Are you that?
(Magic noise)
Montanus? Quiet.
Do not frighten him.
Whom?
My friend.
Come, we fly after him.
Crazier. I have to find a mirror.
The mirror of your mistress?
How do you know?
I even know where to find him.
Come on. You know very well in this forest.
Yes.
Because you are a hunter? Do you doubt about that?
Maybe.
What is the name of this tree? This is a message tree.
The animals that pass by leave something behind.
The message here smells like a fox.
The one that comes from...
Um, from a wolf.
And that's what a squirrel did.
I am impressed.
And what about it?
How old is the ant king?
Ants have a queen.
Correct.
Did I pass the exam?
Not quite. All good things come in threes. Later.
We can not wait any longer, the three of us have to follow him.
The three of us? Yes.
You and me and Isabel.
(Snorting)
(Isabel neighs softly.)
You are Isabel? (She grumbles softly.)
Take my hand.
Good? (Rosa affirms.)
(Magic vocals begin.)
(Music continues.)
(Isabel neighing)
(Magic music fades away.)
Montanus, watch out.
He does not torture any animals anymore.
We are there.
Whoa, whoa. (She groans.)
What do you do with me?
I'll help you search.
(Magic music)
(Rosa in the mirror laughs.)
Um...
Pink?
Pink.
Are you feeling better?
I think riding is not good for me.
Did you not like it? But.
But I see things that do not exist.
But were not these things nice?
They were beautiful. The most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
And the scariest thing.
You are beautiful, Rosa.
I look awful.
I have to go home.
Did not you have another question?
Certainly.
The springwort. Where does she grow?
You should not talk about some things.
I think the showjumping does not exist.
No one knows where she is. No human.
The woodpecker who knows where she is.
That remains our secret.
You're not just a hunter, right?
(Emotional violin sounds)
You are a magician.
(Rhythmic removed beats)
Montanus?
Yes? Did I do something wrong?
No.
(Exciting music)
No.
Will I see you again?
Attention!
(Exciting music)
Boulders! Attention!
Come on, get away! (She screams.)
Come on!
Have to wait.
2000 thaler. (Steps)
Excuse me, mistress. Your mirror.
How nice.
Did you speak the hunter?
Yes. And?
His answer to your first... I'm interested in jumping.
He says where it grows, you do not talk about it.
Then nothing?
What do you think?
My men refuse to fell. How, they refuse?
We almost fell off a boulder.
Leave me alone. (He buzzes.)
Rübezahl.
You do not know who you are dealing with.
(Horrible music)
(Devilish laugh)
(Barking cough)
Mother?
What are you doing with her? She robbed the baroness.
But you can not lock her up, she's seriously ill.
Mother... (Mother) Let's be fine, Rosa.
Lock me up, please. Out of the way!
(Emotional music)
(Peacock screams.)
(Graf) If you do not start building the sawmill soon,
I have to withdraw my money.
No need to be impatient, Count.
The men have long begun to clear the forest.
Roden is one thing.
Saw something completely different.
I will give you until next week. (Steps)
Then I want to see progress. Do not worry.
I'm counting on you. Mistress?
Oh, forgive me.
Hello, Baroness.
My mother... I warned you.
But it was only a little bit of brushwood.
She's sick. She dies in prison.
This hunter.
Did not he really tell you where the showjumping grows?
He says only the woodpecker knows where it grows.
The woodpecker? That was all.
Not more? No, I swear it.
What about my mother?
(Door is opened.)
From Erik.
(Erik) "My dearest pink,
I think of you and the happy day,
where we meet again. "
(Rosa continues reading) "But unfortunately it is not as soon as hoped.
And what's the worst: by my own fault. "
In a year?
Promise, broken. And so on.
I saw the woodpecker feeding his cubs in the woods.
What if you block his access to his cave?
Then the boys starve to death.
Or he gets the showjumping and breaks free.
That is possible.
We have to take care of him, and already...
we have what we want, dzhababa.
(He continues to sing.) Unfortunately not.
Rübezahl must not get in the way.
That's my concern. I have certain potions.
Potions?
For a ghost? Certainly.
If the spirit drinks it in human form,
the potion also falls to him.
Like the ax the tree.
Good.
I already know who's giving him this devil stuff.
And then there is nothing in the way of a treasure hunt.
You become more and more sympathetic to me, Frau Baronin.
(Chickens cackling.)
(Goat complains)
(Cock crows.)
Mother.
Dear mother, what did you do with you?
(Emotional music)
(The mother coughs.)
The soup is ready soon.
(Rattle, hoofbeats)
Now they bring me back.
Firewood for the cold nights.
This is not a good idea, Montanus.
Why not?
The baroness thinks, mother steals again.
That's my wood. I give it to who I want.
Nevertheless.
(Mother coughs.) What is missing from your mother?
She has a whooping cough.
And now a creeping fever.
I have exactly the right thing for that.
Bring two logs, your fire is hungry.
Who are you? Good evening.
I bring you herbs.
That's Montanus.
(Soft string music)
We also have bowls.
Attention.
Ah.
Not bad for a stranger in the house.
I wonder what such a man in the house
could still do anything the sweet day.
You ask yourself?
Well.
He has to build the house himself first.
Then he puts on a garden. A garden? Do I have.
A pretty big one.
The field...
If that were done... Mother, please.
I'll see what I can do.
Then the man in the house probably guards the children?
Like a set of organ pipes, of course.
Three girls and three boys.
Now lie down once.
The fever will go down, and the cough will not come back.
Your chosen one will never be bored.
Or you have not found the right one yet?
I'm watching.
(Rattling) Ah.
Quite close here for a hunter.
Yes, your house is the forest too.
Yes. Would you like to have another trip?
With Isabel? Yes.
We ride through rain and storm
and fall over the waterfall in the pond.
I can not swim. I'll teach it to you.
I have to take care of mother.
Pink?
I like you very much.
(Mother snores.)
Kl?rchen's wedding is on Sunday.
Can you accompany me?
Everything has it's price.
(Mother moans.)
(Magic noise)
Rübezahl.
(Fairytale music)
(She laughs happily.)
Pink.
Your mother is home again? Yes, Mistress, thank you.
You are welcome.
How is this hunter?
Good.
I have a gift for him.
Bring it to him.
Bring it to him? Where?
He will surely come to Kl?rchen's wedding on Sunday.
(laughing) Well then.
Give it to him.
Give him a good shot without him realizing it.
I'm supposed to poison him? No no.
Just a little nap. Nothing happens to him.
Like your mother.
She should not go to jail again.
She would not survive that. I agree.
(Bells ring.)
(Happy music)
(Pastor) I wish you all the best.
(Kl?rchen) Thank you, it was very nice.
(Happy voices)
Baroness? What is Mr. Baron doing?
I am a widow.
(Beep) Ah, that works like clockwork.
(Woodpecker peeps upset.)
(Bleeps from the nest)
You are sure that he will come back?
I wish you that you are always happy.
That's nice of you. Thanks. Look here.
This is for you.
You sewed that yourself? (She says yes.)
Unfortunately, the fabric was only enough for one. I'm sorry.
Oh, that does not matter. Thank you, you love.
Here, that's for you both. - Thank you.
What about Erik? Is he still coming?
No, he will not come.
I should have listened to my mother.
What about Montanus? Will he come before everything is gone?
I do not know.
But he is also unpredictable.
(Frieder) Now the barrel is empty.
Not like your Frieder.
Do you still take a second keg?
We can not afford that.
If you do not eat anything anymore, you have to leave soon.
Goes goes.
(He moans.) Quiet.
(Flapping, beeping)
(Magic crackle)
Looks.
No. The springwort, she hangs tight.
We have to get her down. Run already!
Yes, I have it.
I have her.
(Neigh) (He shouts.)
Crap.
Baroness. Help me.
Baroness! I am your partner.
I want to go to the mountain!
(Hooves) Baroness!
Crap! Crap! Crap!
(Children) bread, bread.
Children, they have to be enough for everyone. - That was my disc.
The rich people...
When they celebrate the wedding, they blow their belly full.
And have music and dance.
You're the one.
Montanus.
So suddenly shy?
Do not you like my name anymore?
How about thunderstorm giant?
Or wolf ear? Or Krummholzk?nig?
Or just swindlers? So charmless?
And that from the mouth of a rose.
You must have beautiful names for each other.
Yes, honey and little birds.
Beer?
I'm so sorry.
There is nothing left.
Nonsense.
You are not tapping properly.
Beer for everyone.
(Amazed mumbling)
Will you please stop?
(Guests laugh.)
(Woman) A miracle.
(Happy music) For the benefit.
Many Thanks.
(Woman, excited) Children, there is food.
(Man) Yes, for the good of it.
Enjoy.
Who will look so grumpy,
if the bowls want to be eaten empty?
Attract, host, and party with.
To the side, make room.
(Kl?rchen) Frieder, come here.
What's that? - These are our gifts.
What?
You, Kl?rchen?
I think that's real silver.
We can buy a house from it, a field.
Chickens, a goat.
But where does it all come from?
This is a dream, please pinch me.
If it's a dream, let us dream it together.
Look, sausages. There.
(Dark music)
Run!
Selfish, insidious bitch.
Such a stupid, stupid, oberdoofe mountain goat.
Such an ugly owl.
Good soup.
(He is frightened.)
The dish was empty. - (woman) That does not exist.
Do not complain, Hans, enjoy it.
Good.
(Kl?rchen) Children, there are cakes.
Who wants another piece? - I want.
Thank you.
For the benefit.
(He plays a happy song.)
(Man) How long have I not heard any music?
Come on, let's dance.
(Magic crackle)
(Exciting music)
(laughing) I feel dizzy.
Again?
Thank you for everything.
Mountain spirit.
(Mysterious music begins.)
(Trembling breathing)
(Magic whirring and sounding)
(She laughs.)
(Devilish laugh)
(Cheerful dance music)
Pink? Pink.
Pink...
Did you give him the vial?
I threw it away.
You did not give it to him? No.
That is very good.
You must know, the hunter there... This is not a hunter.
I know. You know?
Yes. All the better.
The Baroness is on her way to the mountain.
She steals Rübezahl's sweetheart.
What?
You have to tell him. Go, go, go. Tell him.
On the most beautiful wedding party in the Giant Mountains.
On the bride and groom.
(all) to the bridal couple. Do not drink.
(Dark music)
I have nothing left to do with it.
Nothing. Nothing at all.
Where are you leading me?
How do you feel?
Magnificently.
The potion... There is enough for everyone.
Listen to me, I have something to tell you. First, I have to tell you something.
Come with me.
Best today. I give you everything there is.
The sky, fire, earth, water, air.
The Harrantin invades your kingdom, steals your gold.
She can not. But.
She has the jumping root.
(Exciting sounds)
I have told her that the woodpecker knows where she grows.
She squeezed it off with the freedom of my mother.
I am only human, Montanus.
(Dramatic music)
Montanus!
(Thunder)
(Sad piano music)
(She is sobbing)
(echoing) For you humans it is gold.
For nature it is life force.
You have no right to take anything from you.
Her with the springwort.
Ah...
You have found your master.
(He moans.)
(He screams in agony.)
(Steps)
Where is Rübezahl? What did you do with him?
You gave him the drink, not me.
What about him? Is he dead?
No. I gave you my word.
He is locked up in his Goldberg.
And what the showjumping once seals,
A spirit can not solve that anymore.
You can not do that.
(sobbing) You can not do that.
Serve a tea in the salon. Yes?
Very well.
(Mysterious music)
Show me the way.
(Stirring music)
Montanus!
(He's breathing hard.)
(Dark music)
(Magic crackle)
(Hopeful music)
(echoing) Montanus?
Montanus.
(whispers) Montanus.
(He whimpers) You live.
(weak) Yes.
I am blind.
Quick, take me to the water.
Yes.
Mix in the herbs. Not too much...
Yes.
Can you see?
Say something.
I see.
I see you.
Forgive me, if you can.
There is nothing to forgive.
You have freed me from my coffin.
And you make me happy.
Every day we are together.
But the forest,
the animals
the mountains and their treasures,
I neglected that.
My purpose as a mountain spirit is to watch over nature.
Nature needs my protection.
Every day.
Every day more.
Yes.
Yes I understand.
You have other duties than a family.
Life in a house is too tight for you.
But I... I am a human.
I need a different bed than between heaven and earth,
a different garden than the forest.
And another man than me.
Yes, perhaps.
It will not be easy for me to return to my world without you.
But no matter what the future brings,
I will never forget that I was very close to you.
(Emotional music)
(Knocking and hammering)
(Door is opened.)
Erik, are you never asleep?
Only if I have to. I sewed the leather tonight.
Now I make wooden shoes.
(The wind whistles.)
Damn cone. You only bring me misfortune.
(Magic whirring) (Fairytale flute music)
Master. Master!
Yes, today I go to the tanner and get new... - Is that gold?
(Birds scream.)
(Goat complains)
(Soft music)
Pink.
Where have you been all night?
What's happening?
Out of the way.
(with an open voice) Your most devoted servant,
Mrs. Baroness.
(He pants.)
I ask you for a gentle gift.
I do not have anything. Get out of my area.
If so,
then I want to give you something.
You?
Yes.
Something that belongs to your cold heart.
What are you talking?
Go away.
(Ominous sounds)
On the spot. Lazy beggar pack. Disappears.
Coachman!
(Exciting music)
Farewell, mistress, and if it gets too cold for you during the hunt...
(Kl?rchen, quietly) What does it look like?
Terrible.
Let's go, Kl?rchen.
(Horrible music)
No.
(She moans.)
(She screams, bloodcurdling.)
(hisses) Teufelspack.
(Peaceful music)
Erik.
Pink.
I thought... You thought I would not come back.
Not so fast.
But miracles happen.
And I had a mountain spirit for a friend.
I have disappointed you.
Yes.
Yes, you have.
I am so sorry.
Do you forgive me?
My heart.
You still have it.
Yes.
I almost lost it.
Me too.
Do you want to see what I brought you?
Shoes. Three for boys and three for girls.
(Romantic music)
And what should all live from?
I have money.
I open a workshop with it.
And Rosa becomes a woman master.
Should I really have been wrong about you, Erik?
(Magic vocals begin.)
