Die Kraft des Waldes - Die letzten Pecher von Hernstein(2025)
The forest is an inexhaustible reservoir of life force – no one knows this better than the so-called resin tappers, the forest workers who extract resin from the trees. Black pine, in particular, is considered especially productive in its later years. In Hernstein, the old tradition of resin tapping has been preserved. The resin from here is considered among the best in the world and is used, among other things, to make ointments. Director Wolfgang Niedermair accompanied the people here and documented their lives in harmony with nature. He portrays a hard but also fulfilling profession, one that is practiced by only a few today.
