Heidi

The happiest days of her childhood are spent by the orphan girl Heidi with her reclusive grandfather, the Alpöhi, in a simple alpine hut in the Grisons mountains. Together with her friend, Peter the goat herder, she tends to the Alpöhi's goats and enjoys the freedom of the mountains. However, this carefree time comes to an abrupt end when Heidi is taken to Frankfurt by her aunt Dete. There, she is to be a playmate for the wealthy Mr. Sesemann's wheelchair-bound daughter Klara and learn to read and write under the supervision of the strict governess Miss Rottenmeier. Although the two girls soon become friends and Klara's grandmother ignites Heidi's passion for reading and writing, the longing for her beloved mountains and the Alpöhi grows ever stronger.
