Intro

The Freilichtspiele Moosegg are staging a musical revival about the most famous Emmental native, bringing the world of Albert Bitzius and his family back to life.

Three siblings meet at the 'Ochsen' inn in Lützelflüh. They have a lot to talk about: their mother has recently died and their father was a pastor, writer and famous. It is Cécile, Henriette and Albert Bitzius who come together here, where their father Jeremias Gotthelf used to stop in regularly.

At this meeting of siblings, the discussion of inheritance matters quickly fades into the background. The three different Bitzius/Gotthelf descendants prefer to talk about their current situation, reminisce about their childhood and youth together and talk about themselves and their parents in a way they have never done before.

Long-forgotten memories emerge, events that actually happened mingle with scenes and stories from Gotthelf's stories and novels, unfulfilled life plans and remaining wishes are revealed.

Finally, this sibling reunion is rounded off and emotionally embedded with what has always united the Bitzius children: singing and making music.
