Verkaufte Heimat(1989)

Verkaufte Heimat is a four-part historical drama series following three South Tyrolean families through one of the region's most turbulent periods. Set between 1938 and the mid-1960s, the narrative weaves together the personal struggles of the Rabensteiners, Tschurtschenthalers, and Oberhollenzers with the sweeping political upheaval reshaping their homeland. As fascism, war, and postwar reconstruction transform South Tyrol, these interconnected families navigate impossible choices, fractured loyalties, and the collision between local identity and larger historical forces. Verkaufte Heimat examines how ordinary lives become entangled with extraordinary events, revealing the human cost of a region caught between nations and ideologies during its most defining era.
