7 Zwerge: Der Wald ist nicht genug
- by Otto Waalkes, Bernd Eilert, and Sven Unterwaldt, Jr., directed by Sven Unterwaldt, Jr.
- (premiered at an unknown movie theater, Hamburg, Germany, 24 October 2006)
In this retelling of Rumpelstiltskin, an older Snow White is the distraught mother in danger of losing her child, and she enlists the help of her seven old friends who (among other things) travel through a magic mirror to modern-day Hamburg. Do they time travel? That depends on whether you consider their homeland to be a secondary world (which implies travel from one world or universe to another) or a part of old Germany (which implies actual time travel!). There is a case to be made for it being old Germany, given that the first movie in the 7 Zwerge series told us that they lived in a “sinister forest, deep in the heart of a country known as . . . Germany.” —based on Wikipedia
