As a child, Jennerwein had to watch his father, the legendary poacher Hannes von Tirol, being shot in cold blood by the royal gamekeeper Mayr in front of his mother.

After the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71, devastating poverty reigned in Tyrol and Bavaria. Anyone who provided a piece of meat in such times quickly became a folk hero and the archenemy of the authorities. Mayr set his sights on Jennerwein and Pföderl. When he noticed that they were both in love with the same girl, Agerl, he stirred up jealousy...
