About Oben fährt der große Wagen
Story of two young people: Andrea and Christian, called Krischan. The movie and their adventure begins when they enter an old town by the sea: Stralsund. The young people will experience many a surprise, and the real adventure is a journey of discovery for both of them; they want to find out what motivates the other, what goals they have and which character traits dominate. This also brings them face to face with the past, for example when Klein-Christian ate from Master Zillmann's liverwurst tree and was abandoned by the Snow Queen Luise, who had a heart of stone. Or Krischan meets Little Andrea, who always gnawed at her pigtails because she was afraid of her cheeky Uncle Albert. But now the two are turned towards the present and the future, and their behavior shows that their young love will last.
Directed by Christian Steinke, Oben fährt der große Wagen leans on a strong ensemble — Gunter Schoß, Ursula Staack, Wilhelm Puchert — 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 screen titles of 1966.
