Table of Contents
A heartwarming tale of faith,community,and resistance is unfolding in a village near munich,as a spirited sister attempts to save a beloved inn from a ruthless developer. The story, originally broadcast on BR television in Germany in 2008, continues to resonate with themes of preservation and the power of collective action. Sister Anna, an agent of the Diakonie Agency in Upper Franconia, finds herself tasked with a seemingly straightforward assignment: selling the “Weißblauer Engel” restaurant, inherited by the Diakonie. Though, the situation quickly becomes far more complex than a simple property transaction.
A Joyful Finding and a Looming Threat
Upon arriving at the inn, Sister Anna is pleasantly surprised to discover a thriving establishment filled with warmth and character. She quickly connects with Kristos, the inn’s likeable host, and his three vibrant employees – affectionately known as “angels” – Madonna, Xana, and Aurora. This initial joy is soon overshadowed by the revelation of a important threat.
An unscrupulous construction magnate, Ludwig Breitmoser, intends to purchase not only the “Weißblauer Engel” but the entire village, with plans to replace it with a massive and aesthetically jarring football leisure park.This ambition ignites a fire within Sister Anna, transforming her assignment from a financial obligation into a passionate fight for the heart and soul of the community.
