Plot.
A six-part film series addressing the problems of rural Austria from 1900 to 1945. Contrary to the traditional "Heimatfilm", the Alpensaga detaches itself from typical clichés and tries to depict a critical view of societal structures of the time. World history is shown from the view of a peasant family living in a small village in Upper Austria.

Wiki.
Die Alpensaga is a six-part Austrian television drama film by Peter Turrini and Wilhelm Pevny. It was filmed between 1976 and 1980 under the direction of Dieter Berner. A critical portrayal of the social structures in the countryside and the effects of the political crises in the first half of the 20th century in Upper Austria, it follows the Hubers, an Austrian farming family. Peer Raben composed the music for the series. Critically acclaimed, it has been compared by critics to Bertolucci's epic film 1900. A three-volume book edition of the series was published in 1980.
