- The story Mord im Heiligenwald or Murder in Holy Wood, is a provincial comedy about a murder committed in a Swabian village in Southern Germany in the early 50ies. A tyrannical father and husband is found dead in the woods, apparently beaten to death by an unknown killer. Prime suspects are the various members of the victims family. Interrogations are then carried out by the two village policemen who have soon an inspector and his assistant from the nearby town appointed above them. It then develops a plot full of twists, suspense and subplots in which the village policemen carry the day in the end with a whole lot of creativity and typically Swabian cunning. Going down memory lane During our extensive research we set out to find places in the proximity of our village which havent changed much since the early 50ies. The actors in our film are all from the area and we found costumes and props from a time that signified a colossal turning point in the development of local village structures. Our aim is to document valuable memories from those days- some sort of safeguarding our cultural heritage which is truly inseparable from the people living and working in this area.
