Der ungebetene Gast

Directed by Peter Wekwerth

With Annekathrin Bürger, Gerry Wolff, Horst Schulze and Walter Plathe

The German couple Anna and Robert Zodinger have fled from Germany from the Nazis and have found refuge in Switzerland. For Robert Zodinger, a former editor, an extradition to Germany would be like a certain death sentence or admission to a concentration camp. The two find protection from the old Webherrn Stutz, who supports them despite the open hostility of his son-in-law Hilber. To make ends meet, Anna works as a waitress while she and her husband have to stay on guard constantly.
