| The Cherry Queen | comment |
The Cherry Queen (German: Die Kirschenkönigin) is a 2004 German historical drama miniseries directed by Rainer Kaufmann and written by Justus Pfaue. It adapts Pfaue's own novel of the same name and stars Johanna Wokalek (Aimée & Jaguar, The Baader Meinhof Complex), August Zirner, Marc Hosemann, Jürgen Tarrach, Delphine Sérina, Adele Neuhauser, Richy Müller and Jürgen Vogel.The story is set in the first half of the 20th century in Germany. Ruth Goldfisch is the daughter of a Jewish banker. She marries an impoverished non-Jewish baron, Albert von Roll, in 1913, and turns his dilapidated estate near the town of Bleicherode into a flourishing cherry farm. Albert is mobilized during World War I and gets injured, and Ruth does everything she can to help him get back into shape, only for him to die by accident. Ruth then loses both of her parents (her mother by accident, her father by suicide).When the Nazis take power in 1933, Ruth decides not to leave the country, preferring not to abandon her cherry orchard, even as Jewish people are being more and more persecuted. She ends up going into clandestinity as World War II breaks out. | |

Those Wacky Nazis | |
| The Cherry Queen / int_697b5232 | comment |
Those Wacky Nazis: "Wacky" in the sense of "pathetic fat shell of a man". The local Brownshirts leader engages in antisemitic slurs directed at Ruth. One night, while he's drunk, Ruth's friends beat him up. | |

Hillbilly Moonshiner: Ruth gets rapidly bored when hiding in the basement of her home during World War II, so she decides to build herself a distillery in said basement, and then consumes her own homemade booze. She also distillates alcohol because she can't stand being inactive after it's become very clear she can't harvest her beloved cherry orchard anymore, lest she wants to get caught and deported. | |

Standard Snippet: Among the Brownshirts' chants, the most recognizable is the "Horst Wessel Lied", the Nazi party's anthem which immediately indicates what they are and what they're up to. | |

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Ruth's mother tragically dies when trying to remove a birdcage from a framework on which scythe blades (used for harvests in the orchard) are hanging. She trips and falls on the ground, and the scythe blades fall on her, pointy end first, much to Ruth's horror. | |
