  • Puppet theater inspired by a tale from Friedrich Wolf

A white bird puppet with an orange beak and orange feet stands on a surface against a dark background. A light-colored bucket with a small skull resting on top is positioned to the right. The lighting highlights the texture of the feathers and the details of the objects. Close-up of a white bird with a large orange beak. The head and beak fill most of the image, while blurred green foliage and bright points of light appear in the background. A bird puppet with an orange beak and a patterned body peers through a narrow gap between curtains or hanging fabrics. An oval strainer or kitchen utensil hangs in the foreground. The scene is warmly lit and features a variety of textile and decorative surfaces. A figure with large eyes, a red sweater, and oversized red shoes sits among toys and props. Beside the figure are a white bird puppet with an orange beak and a colorful spinning top toy. The scene is illuminated against a dark background.

Father Ludwig Löwenhaupt buys a living goose, to be served on Christmas Eve. Until then, his son Peter takes care of the animal, gives her the name Auguste and lets her live in the nursery. Although Peter cannot prevent the goose from being plucked, but he sure can stop her from going to goose heaven too soon!
