About the production:
A desolate village in Germany shortly after the Thirty Years' War: the young clerk Max is in love with Agathe, the daughter of the hereditary forester Kuno. But in order to marry her, Max—an inexperienced marksman—must submit to an archaic tradition and prove himself with a test shot, a challenge that seems impossible for him to overcome.
