Der Biberpelz

The film centers around Baron von Wehrhahn, who, despite his loyalty to the prince, consistently misjudges the intentions of the townspeople. His attempts to make the prince popular lead to absurd situations as he confuses harmless citizens with free-thinkers and revolutionaries. Meanwhile, the true troublemakers, like the thieving old woman Wolff and her poaching husband, continue their antics without interruption.

As a comedy from the late 1930s, Der Biberpelz reflects the social and political atmosphere of its time through humor. Collectors of classic films or those interested in German cinema may find this film's unique narrative engaging. The film features a notable cast, including Heinrich George and Ida Wüst, contributing to its overall charm.
