Das Geheimnis des siebten Weges

What a cute little series we have here. From the start I thought the acting was a bit stiff. It makes the first few episodes a little rough to get through. However, they're also very charming and intriguing already, which makes up for it and helps pull you into the story. A captivating story that slowly unravels the plot that eventually ends in a somewhat predictable but wholesome finish.

Tonnie Eijk has done an amazing job on the score and the whole direction and cinematography is amazing. I can't say much about a comparison to the book, since I haven't read it, but I do like the fact that there is very little supernatural stuff happening. Even though the series looks very much like a fantasy/adventure thing. This sure helps making the story feel more real too.

Its a shame that many people don't know this television mini series. I have seen the German translated version but i don't know if its available in other languages than dutch and German. It is absolutely necessary to watch them in chronological order otherwise you will get (even more) confused. The music also is very precise and fits in perfectly. If you are in adventure like young Indiana Jones then go for it. I think of it as one of the best series ever made -not only for kids, because the acting is very professional- with real suspense. Franz the red only is worth watching. He is a pretty smart actor and surely every kid likes him to be their teacher. The story to me is a mixture of PSI and adventure sometimes a little bit overdone but very sympathetic (everyone dreams about mystery). Call it a Hitchcock Movie for kiddies. Hardly recommended! Watch it!

I loved this show as a kid in 80s Germany. There is this mysterious cross road with 7 junctions. I recall the youngster on his motor bike, who changed his personality and/or entire person frequently. Genius idea. A red headed teacher, the main protagonist, buddied up with his pupils regarding that strange cross road. After all, he was the foreigner who was settling in for a living. Rewatching it now, some plot points feel a little out of place. A normal school class would not be so overly curious about a teacher's business. When the main protagonist withdraws from that class, as an example, the class start revolving around him. That doesn't feel real. When I watched the show as a kid, none of that stuck out. Loved it.
