In a place where a biblical landscape and western myths converge, there is a house, part biker hangout, part mountain farm. It welcomes all beings who traverse this inhospitable landscape. In „The Hostel“, past and future merge into one place, and deepest misery and recreation are not mutually exclusive. This is where our paths cross.
A forest ranger, after spending years tracking down a poacher, is taken aback to learn the man is the father of his beloved.

Conductor Johannes Wildner leads the Philharmonic Orchestra Bratislava in a command performance of Johann Strauss's final operetta, "Wiener Blut" (Viennese Blood), at Austria's internationally recognized Mörbisch operetta festival in 1994. The production -- featuring a libretto by Victor Leon and Leo Stein -- showcases the choir of the Concert Union of the Wiener Volksoper and the Ballet of the Slovak National Theatre.
A história dessa opereta de Johan Strauss se passa nos anos de 1814 e 1815 quando os paises da Europa se reunem em Viena para criar uma nova ordem, após a queda de Napoleão. Mas o Conde Zedlau, representante do Principado de Reuss-Greiz-Schleiz, está mais preocupado em administrar seus conflitos amorosos com a esposa, a amante oficial e a sua nova conquista, do que com os assuntos políticos de seu país.
