Bei Tag und bei Nacht – Aus dem Leben eines Bergdoktors

Ein Mann in rotem Hemd und heller Hose trägt einen schwarzen Arztkoffer und steht auf einer grünen Wiese vor bewaldeten Bergen, darüber großer Schriftzug "Bei Tag und bei Nacht" und kleinerer Text "Aus dem Leben eines Bergdoktors".

The film is the living portrait of a Carinthian country doctor and his peasant clientele throughout one year in midst of the grandiose Alpine world of the Lienzer Dolomiten. Both professions, country doctor and Alpine peasants, are in a precarious situation: they are menaced by extinction. Accompanying the doctor we explore a small world in all its manifold dimensions, fighting to retain their way of living and protect it against the pressure to adapt to modernity.
