About Sebastian Kneipp
Memorable moments from the life of the Catholic priest and naturopath from Wörishofen (1821-1897). The film depicts the successes of his hydrotherapy methods, his hostility from conventional medicine, and his rehabilitation by Pope Leo XIII.
Directed by Wolfgang Liebeneiner, Sebastian Kneipp leans on a strong ensemble — Carl Wery, Paul Hörbiger, Gerlinde Locker — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1958.
