The Mountain (Der Berg)

Introduction

The bear knows exactly what the mountain looks like, namely green and full of trees. But the sheep also knows the mountain and can describe it: the mountain is a meadow. This view is again contradicted by the ant. Every other animal in the story has its own fixed idea of ​​the mountain. So hard that the animals get into arguments about it. Because everyone wants to be right. Only a joint mountain climb widens the view. And at the end there is the insight that there is enough space for many views. Each animal’s perspective is shown in the form of an impressive panorama. Rebecca Gugger and Simon Röthlisberger tell a story about different perceptions with wit and sophistication.
