Hanna Amon

Hanna Amon is a 1951 German Agfacolor drama film directed by Veit Harlan and starring Kristina Söderbaum, Lutz Moik and Ilse Steppat. It was shot at the Göttingen Studios and on location in Upper Bavaria. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Hans Berthel and Rochus Gliese. It was the second film after Immortal Beloved (also 1951) in a post-war comeback by director Harlan and his wife Söderbaum, who remained controversial figures due to their association with the Nazi era. Both films were major commercial hits, despite calls for a boycott.

Synopsis
Hanna and her brother Thomas Amon live on the estate of their deceased parents. Initially very much focused on each other, they remain oblivious to the fact that Hanna is secretly admired by the local veterinary while the mayor's daughter has a crush on Thomas.

However, Thomas then falls for the much older Vera Colombani, a seductive castle owner. Ignoring his sister's warnings, he follows her to the south, where they spend the winter.

When Thomas is dropped by Colombani, he returns to the estate. A renewed encounter with his lover triggers a downward spiral which claims the lives of Colombani and Hanna.
