Geschichten übern Gartenzaun is an East German television series from 1982. The second and last season was broadcast in 1985 under the title Neues übern Gartenzaun.

Plot

[edit]

The TV series Geschichten übern Gartenzaun is set in the fictional garden allotment site called ‘Ulenhorst’, which becomes a focal point of upheaval when a divorced woman and her four children move in. The episodes, organized around seasonal changes, explore a variety of themes, including interpersonal relationships, neighbourly interactions, and the distinct environment of the allotment gardens, presenting these elements in different facets throughout the series.

Background

[edit]

The series was filmed in Dresden's Hellersiedlung housing estate and in Dresden-Naußlitz at the ‘Frohe Stunde’ garden centre.

Claudia Gallus, one of Jutta Fleck's two daughters, portrayed the character of Birgit Hoffmann in both seasons. In the second season, the roles of Claudia Schubert, Ilona Hoffmann, and Harry Hahn were recast, as the original actors—Monika Woytowicz, Frauke Strauß, and Bodo Wolf—had moved to West Germany.

The series also marked Rolf Herricht’s final role, as he passed away during the production. He was missing from some episodes in the first season, and as a result, his role was not recast for the second season. Actor Adolf Peter Hoffmann, who played a role in the series, also passed away before the show was first broadcast.
