Christmas without Sissi?
Hard to imagine for many.
So that you don't miss a film from the famous trilogy, we have summarized for you when Sissi will be on TV and stream before and at Christmas 2021.
Munich - When you hear Empress Sissi, played by Romy Schneider, shout "Franz!" Through the corridors of Schönbrunn Palace and her Emperor Franz Joseph breathes "Sissi!" Back, one thing is clear: It's Christmas time!
Because the Sissi trilogy is part of Christmas for many people like gifts and a Christmas tree.
What is the Christmas classic Sissi about?
With a huge load of kitsch, a lot of romance and a leading actress who has become a legend, “Sissi” transports fans of the trilogy into a different era every winter.
The three films “Sissi” and the sequels “Sissi - The Young Empress” and “Sissi - Fateful Years of an Empress”, which were released in 1955, 1956 and 1957, are roughly based on the life story of Empress Elisabeth.
In 1854 the then 16-year-old became Empress of Austria through her marriage to her cousin Franz Joseph I.
The “Sissi” films are by no means documentaries, but a mixture of historical and homeland films.
The focus of the three parts is primarily on the love story with Sissi's "Franzl", the tensions with her mother-in-law Archduchess Sophie (played by Vilma Degischer) and the young empress's lung disease.
When will the Sissi trilogy run on TV at Christmas 2021?
As every year, Sissi fans can look forward to numerous repetitions of the three parts on TV and free TV before and at Christmas.
The first broadcasts Part 1 even on Christmas Eve at prime time.
