Noble Tongue: The Sessemanns and their servants speak a more formal version of German (Hochdeutsch) than the dialect that Heidi speaks (Schwyzerdütsch).

Papa Wolf: Grandpa Wolf here. Heidi's grandfather refuses to let aunt Dete take her away from him, and when Dete insists, he scares her away with the scythe he was using to mow tall grass.

Friendless Background: Klara spends almost all of her time shut indoors, mostly surrounded by adults who are explicitly forbidden from interacting with her in any casual way. Heidi may be her only real friend.

Grumpy Old Man: Heidi's grandfather is an old and austere loner who reluctantly accepts to take care of her. Then he starts warming up to her, and he is devastated when her aunt kidnaps her to bring her to Frankfurt a few years later.

Fish out of Water: Heidi when she is forced to live in Frankfurt. She misses the mountains dearly, and has to adjust to speaking Hochdeutsch (standard German), as the Swiss German (Schwyzerdütsch) she normally speaks isn't understood by everyone there and is implied to sound too "peasant"-ish to those tidy German urbanites.

Truer to the Text: The original book describes Heidi as having dark, curly hair. In many adaptations, she's been portrayed as a blonde, but here, Anuk Steffen fits the book description to a T.

Tomboy

comment
Tomboy: Heidi is a very outdoorsy girl, and dresses like a boy sometimes when herding goats in the mountains. This version of Heidi is perhaps the least "girly" ever made, with simpler and dirtier clothes than the clean dresses or skirts she is usually portrayed with in other media (she's an Unkempt Beauty when wearing them nonetheless). The change to dresses when having to live in Frankfurt also underscores Heidi's unhappiness there.

Jerkass: Aunt Dete, by dumping Heidi on her grandfather's doorstep then fleeing without asking him about his opinion on the matter. Then she comes back at him some time later to take Heidi back, without caring for his opinion and feelings yet again, and ends up kidnapping her. Also she receives money from placing Heidi in the Sesemann house and she doesn't even say goodbye to Heidi after receiving the money.
