Released in 1939, Die Pfingstorgel is a comedy film directed by Franz Seitz, running about 87 minutes.

What it’s about. The residents of the villages Strasslach and Rott are anything but friends. The residents of the “enemy” town are ridiculed at every chance the residents of the other village can get to do so. And it’s no different, when Rott is getting ready to celebrate the 300th anniversary of its founding. The residents of Strasslach ridicule their neighbors, because the Rotters don’t want to celebrate the anniversary, because it’ll cost money. Even the church doesn’t have an organ, because that would cost money, too.

Who’s in it. Die Pfingstorgel stars Willy Rösner as Bürgermeister Zirngibl, Maria Andergast as Gertrud, seine Tochter, Gustav Waldau as Mathias Kammreiter and Hilde Sessak as Bienchen - ihre Tochter, among others.
