Overview
There is excitement in the village of Niklashausen in the Tauber Valley when a folk play about the lay preacher Hans Böhm is to be performed again. Known today as 'Pfeifer Hans', he was burned as a heretic by the bishop in the 15th century after preaching a new kingdom of God without an emperor and pope to hundreds of convinced peasants. While preparations for the play are underway, conversations with the villagers show how much this past still moves them today.
