About Der Hasenhüter
The young shepherd Konrad wants to ask the princess to marry him. All the exhortations of the kitchen maid Anne are to no avail. With the help of a magic flute, Konrad solves all the tasks set by the king and the princess. In doing so, he recognizes the princess's true character and so he decides in favour of Anne, not without first severely punishing the greed of the royal court.
Directed by Ursula Schmenger, Der Hasenhüter leans on a strong ensemble — Jaroslava Schallerová, Jan Spitzer, Erik S. Klein — 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 family titles of 1977.
