Christina (1953 film)

Christina is a 1953 West German drama film directed by Fritz Eichler and starring Barbara Rütting, Lutz Moik and Franziska Kinz.

In accordance with his mother's wishes, Klaus is as good as engaged to the rich banker's daughter Renate Frank, and also believes that he has found the woman for life in her.

Klaus Stauffer does not yet dare to oppose his mother's wishes, although he clearly senses that it is love that draws him to Christina.

Although Holk wants to leave immediately, Christina defiantly asks him to dance - according to a peasant custom - and thus causes an uproar.

Shortly thereafter, Klaus makes it clear to his mother that he will marry Christina, even if that might doom the family business.

Klaus' mother finally realizes that she has done the wrong thing and that her son's happiness is more important than financial security.
