West German HEIMATFILM with Marianne KOCH and Paul HUBSCHMID

The West German film director Kurt HOFFMANN was awarded the GOLDEN GLOBE twice (1958 for FELIX KRULL, 1960 for WIR WUNDERKINDER), but his films could also fail. In 1956 he made a new film adaptation of Erich KÄSTNER's novel THE LITTLE BORDER TRAFFIC. The story takes place in the 1930s, when there were strict foreign exchange regulations between Nazi Germany and Austria. A writer commutes to Salzburg every day to attend the festival there. And of course this leads to an enchanting dalliance with all sorts of potential for confusion...

Marianne KOCH and Paul HUBSCHMID play bravely against the harmless narrative. But the real star of the film is the beautiful city of Salzburg, which is portrayed in wonderful images. There are also interesting impressions from the festival.

As a feature film, the SALZBURG STORIES only have a museum character.
