Overview

The planned construction of a railroad line to connect the small town of Dornstein with the wider world. But instead of the shortest and most practicable connection, the route runs through swampy terrain far away from Dornstein. So the mayor goes to Munich to make representations to the ministry. He achieved nothing, but his trip was soon stylized in Dornstein as a campaign against those up there. This leads the magistrate to break off his engagement to the mayor's daughter because of the latter's well-known hostility towards the government. And the people of Dornstein also start to get cold feet ...

Jan 1, 1962

Alois Hingerl, porter no. 172 at the Munich train station, gets into heaven. St. Peter introduces him to the heavenly house rules: “rejoicing” and “singing hallelujah”. Of that, “Angel Aloisus” is not very edified, especially since he is supposed to get “heavenly manna” instead of Munich beer. Due to a few irksome events at the side, his dissatisfaction is only increased. Angrily, he sits down on his cloud in order to rejoice and sing hallelujah. But that sounds in such a way that the heavenly population’s hair stood on end. In his indignation, Alois even doesn’t mince his words towards the Lord. The latter gives in and orders Alois to deliver the divine afflatus to the Bavarian government. He sends him immediately with a corresponding letter to Munich. As “angel Aloisius” comes back home, he at once goes to the Hofbräuhaus. And like this, the Bavarian government waits till today for the divine afflatus in vain.
