Description

Two young siblings, Hans and Suse, find themselves lodged in a stark white house by the canal, under the watchful eye of the widowed pastor’s wife, Frau Cimhuber. The city feels huge and unfamiliar, and the siblings’ excitement quickly turns to nervousness as they face the prospect of attending a prestigious school far from their mountain home. Their banter reveals a mix of sibling rivalry and affection, while the stern instructions from their caretaker set a tone of discipline and expectation.

Morning drags on as the children prepare for school, still half‑asleep and whispering about the elderly housekeeper Ursel and the mysterious routines of the household. Their curiosity and slight defiance spark a restless energy that promises the city will test them in ways they have not yet imagined. Listeners are invited to follow Hans and Suse as they navigate the unfamiliar streets, friendships, and small dangers that shape their first days away from home.
