About Ruf der Wälder
A young Italian worker is always having problems with his coworkers because he doesn't understand their language. His only friend is a dog that came up to him. After his coworkers kick the dog, he becomes angry and beats up the bully. He is then summoned to his boss, who wants to fire him. Standing beside him, however, is a man who wants to take him to Austria to work. There, he meets a beautiful woman and falls in love with her, but he isn't the only one. Someone else has a crush on the woman, and so a conflict erupts that escalates to a head-on.
Directed by Franz Antel, Ruf der Wälder leans on a strong ensemble — Terence Hill, Johanna Matz, Hans-Jürgen Bäumler — 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 drama titles of 1965.
