Neues aus Büttenwarder - Season 8
Translating as "News from Büttenwarder", the series recounts the modern day trials and tribulations of a small, out-of-the way north German village. It generally focuses on the hair-brained schemes of farmer Kurt Brakelmann and his best friend Adsche Tönnsen to improve their lot. The action usually revolves around the village pub "Unter den Linden" and its cast of regular drinkers. Events are often precipitated by the arrival of outsiders with modern ideas which are sometimes met with suspicion but more often with overenthusiastic interest, especially if it might mean some revenue for the impoverished residents.
